I'm a Naturalized U.S. Citizen. Do I feel out Alien Registration Number (A-Number) on my i-129f? I am the petitioner. I became a U.S. Citizen 30 years ago if that matters. Thanks first!

Evidence of Citizenship: Is my U.S. passport sufficient or do I also need to include my U.S. Naturalization Certificate if I have an A-Number? Confusion with given name. [merged threads]

I am petitioning for my fiance and noticed my name is different on my Certificate of Naturalization. The name I used on my Certificate of Naturalization is now used as my middle name. For example, my Naturalization Certificate shows "John Smith Lee" where Lee is my Family Name. For my passports and my driver license, I use my given name "Michael" John Smith Lee. Should I fill out section 7.a. & 7.b. under Other Names Used with the same exact name on my Certificate of Naturalization?

TLDR:

My family name is : Lee
Name on my Certificate of Naturalization is John Smith Lee

Name on my Passport and Driver License is Michael John Smith Lee

Would I need to fill the section as Other Names Used? (7.a. & 7.b.) - I have not used this name in any other legal documents. All my documents are either Michael Lee or Michael John Smith Lee (Passport & Driver Licenese)

The full name that I wrote on my i-129f is:

Family Name: Lee

GIven Name: Michael

Middle Name: John Smith

Thank you first!

I just saw this. The average current processing times gap for VJ members has changed a little. These charts are generated by data which is entered into VJ timelines. Of course, individual cases vary, and VJ is a small sample size as compared to all cases:

Social Security and Medicare for older immigrants

This is my annual reminder for older immigrant couples (like my spouse and I).

Social Security monthly retirement benefits (Age 62+)

Can be earned:

1. Based on immigrant's own work record OR

2. Based on spouse's work record (must be married for 1 year or more). This does not affect the SS retirement benefit of the US spouse. The immigrant is not required to have any SS work credit. I believe the amount is 50% of spouse's monthly deposit.

Medicare (non-special qualifications)

1. Immigrant must have been a Green Card holder for 5 years.

2. Normally, immigrant must be 65 years old. Immigrant can be entitled to receive FREE Medicare Part A (Example: US Spouse is already receiving SS retirement benefits and US spouse already receives free Medicare Part A). Immigrant will pay the normal Medicare Part B monthly premiums (currently about $174.00) which is deducted from any monthly Social Security benefit deposit.

In our case, I was not aware of the spousal Social Security benefit, so we applied for wife's Social Security and Medicare at the same time (on the same Social Security form) when she turned 65 years old. It took Social Security only a few days to approve her SS retirement benefit and to start her Medicare Parts A & B. Coupled with a good Medicare supplement (ours is Tricare For Life), this provides really good health care coverage.
