  1. okay good, no need for a court order.

    I believe you can go change your SSN with the decree, but it will still not match your employment authorisation (aka greencard) and I would think you'd then have a mismatch issue, or at the very least there may come a time you will have to use your married name (which I would find upsetting and irritating).

    Like I said, personally I'd save up and change the GC. Maybe you could ask your work if you can change the email etc until you can afford to change the GC? I know some places that would be okay with that.

    yeah...I will try that too. Because when customers come see me or when i have business meeting. They still called me Mrs.(my ex-husband last name)

    even when my divorce was processing...I found it kinda weird when i go see my doctor...and they still asking health question related to my marriage status, when they annouce my name ....etc...

    at least...when i get my new SSN ..and I can have a new Driving license ID, so i can use this ID and SSN to change my name at work.

    and my HR will change my name on my paycheack, my name on my healthcare benefit, my name on paycheck-Tax-IRS, 401K

  2. ok, would this cause problem,

    if when i travel, i use my GC and passport --which has my first name and ex-husband lastname

    but at work, i use my new name maiden name change SSN and Driving License. And pay tax ...IRS and etc. based on this documents.

    I will eventually update my passport and greencard to be my current name. But planning to do it in a year or two. i want to take a break from dealing with USCIS , since I just done with them a month ago.

  3. Hello All !!

    I just received my 10 years GC a month ago, and filed for divorce, and now my divorce is granted.

    I’m not sure if I post this question at the right board or not.

    Now I want to change my last name to my maiden name on all documents. But I don’t want to pay i-90 fee and I don’t wanna have a new green card---I just received it a month ago…..so..you know what I mean.

    The thing is …I’m working full time now. And my work email and my name at work is my firat name and my ex-husband last name. I had so much pain from my past relationship that I don’t want to see my name with this last name anymore. I feel free after my divorce is granted and I don’t wanna be known or be called in that last name anymore.

    So, my question is….

    Can I just change my name on my SSN? So my company can change my name on my paycheck, so When I do my tax return-everything is matched and cause no problem?

    My passport and my greencard will remain the same. My first name and my ex-husband last name.

  4. Oh my God...I went to uscis website and check on my case status and found this message on my status.

    Does this mean..the wait is over...and there's nothing else to be worried about?i will receive the card for sure ...no more sending additional paper?

    "On January 22, 2013, we ordered production of your new card. Please allow 30 days for your card to be mailed to you. If we need something from you we will contact you. If you move before you receive the card, call customer service at 1-800-375-5283."

  5. We already filed for I-751. I got the biometrics date already—it’s 08/10/2012

    My husband has the other woman, but he also said that the main reason was that he was unhappy with our marriage to begin with.

    and he started to mention that he wants divorce. But when I asked him for the firm answer---he refused to make it clear.

    I told him to file for divorce—he said no—he’s not ready. It’s like when he’s in good calm mood he would show love , be caring and say he loves me. But when I mentioned the bar, strip club behaviors, he got upset and started to mention divorce here and there.

    And he won’t stop his bars behaviors, won’t stop seeing this other woman. It’s like wants to have a good wife but also want to go out party, living life.

    But I can’t stay in marriage and tolerate this either.

    So here I am stuck in the limbo. Not knowing whether I should move on or move forward.

    I now have a decent Marketing job with a good company. I can support my life here without him. BUT I don’t know what I really want to do yet.

    If this marriage failed, I would want to go back home. But because it’s a serious thing like marriage. I want to give it a one year period.

    He’s taking me for granted and he feels superior over me. And never took me seriously. And he knows that I will need him if we have to go for the interview with USCIS.

    I now stopped relying on him financially and I want to let him know that I’m independent and choose to be with him because I love him and I want him to take it seriously because I will not tolerate this anymore.

    Here’s my question :

    1.How long can I buy the time?

    If I got the case approved without having to go for the interview is fine. But what if we got called in for the interview?

    Can I keep reschedule it? My GC expires 30 September 2012, and NOA extended for one year – so it’s 30 September 2013

    I will tell him that I’ll give him a chance to get his act together and I mean it this time. My deadline would be before 30 September 2013

    If we have to go for the interview, I’ll keep reschedule it. I won’t ask/beg him to go with me on the interview. And if he can’t change by the time the deadline comes, I’ll file for divorce and go home.

    We’re living together, and I’ll do best my part to be a wife, continue work, cook, clean and etc.

    2. If I got my GC approved without having to go for the interview. I would do the same—giving him a year to regroup. I’ll continue doing my best as wife.

  6. I still haven’t got the NOA1 yet.

    But I think it’s still in a reasonable time period. I observe that it usually arrive like 6-7 days after uscis received the packet.

    Even though I shipped it out on Monday 2th in the late afternoon. But it was 4th of July week and I live in Hawaii not on the mainland.

    USPS website showed that the packet was delivered on Friday 6th at 11 am . and now it’s only Wednesday( haven’t checked mailbox yet today, it’s still 9.57 am in Hawaii). So, I guess I’ll wait until Wednesday next week.

  7. I and my husband , we love each other to death, well at least I know I love him to death!

    when we love—we really love! but when we argue/fight---we fight!

    I admit that being here in USA, even though I have my own job, but I can’t drive yet and I’m so bad with directions. So I depend a lot on my citizen husband.

    Lately, when we argue-he likes to being up USCIS. The common sentences he likes to use are ;

    “If you talk too much, you’ll find yourself catching the bus to USCIS on your own” or “why don’t we cancel USCIS mail out…etc..”

    Usually, when cool down he comes to his senses, he always make it up to me.But lately, since we started doing ROC, he likes to bring this up a lot. So, just in case we fight again ---I’ll just catch the bus to USCIS on my own.
