I don't believe in welfare. I understand disability, but not welfare. If you have 2 legs and 2 feet and know how to use them, there is no reason why you should be on welfare. Working minimum wage job full time will pay just as much.
During the biometrics interview they will will ask you to check your name and you can correct it. This will ensure that they run your background check with the right name. They will also check any variations you listed on your N400 and and first, middle, and last names in different orders. So you should be fine as long as your actual name is somewhere on the application or if you correct it at your biometrics appointment. I would call them after bio to make sure just in case.
For example, if your name is Jane Smith but you accidentally wrote Jake Smith, if you correct it at biometrics, they'll check Jane Smith, Jake Smith, Smith Jane, and Smith Jake as well as any common alternate spellings.
To the author of this topic:
You mentioned he withdrew the adjustment of status application once they got divorced, and prior to that he held H1B visa. Well, usually, once you apply for an adjustment of status the previous immigration status is no longer valid. What was his immigration status at the moment YOU petitioned his green card? Was he illegal? If so, then yes, the USCIS might have a ground to assume he was seeking a fast way of receiving a permanent residence. First marriage didn't work, so a year later there was another one that "provided" him a GC. Please don't get me wrong, I am not saying that was his intention but that's what the USCIS can assume based on the evidence provided from the first I-130 petition (which we don't know) and from the second one (mind you, we don't know all of the marriage details you and him provided when applying for GC, and later for removal conditions). They pay attention at every little thing concerning your bona fide marriage. This is their job.
I have a real life story in that regard. My close friend was married with USC, he petitioned her GC, but a few years later the marriage turned unsuccessful. 2 years later she met a guy from her home country, fell in love with him, and re-married...he was a construction worker with no immigration status. Both are nice people, both are hard workers. When it became time for her to apply for a citizenship (5 yr rule) she got denied based on a "bad moral character", and was told to re-apply in 5 years.But guess what...During the interview the entire conversation with an IO (minus the test) was about why her first marriage failed and why she re-married someone (who is actually an illegal immigrant). Yes, she has true feelings in the current marriage and married on a good faith first time, but that is how USCIS views cases like this. My attorney told similar stories in her practice.
So things happens. and again, we don't know your case from the bottom to the top.
I wish you and your husband good luck!
Jauque,
I agree. The marriage certificate is not important at this point until the interview date. It is recommended to have all documentation related to your immigration history - just in case. As far as the death certificate (or copy of any other proof of ended marriage like annulment certificate or divorce decree) - you should send them a copy of it along with n400. I did the same for my own peace of mind (and it's what the USCIS asks as a part of n400 packet).
