Hi all,
I had my interview today and I passed!
The downside is that USCIS still had my name as it was in Mexico with two last names. Everything I have in the US from social security number to drivers license to even my current residence card info is just with one name. In fact, I applied with just one last name.
The officer said I needed to apply with the name I came into the country so he changed it to two last names. This is where I got confused and quite frankly I was already nervous of the process so I wasn't thinking clearly.
Now that I left, I realize that when he submitted my information with the old last name, that I will be getting my papers with two last names which I do NOT want. I am supposed to take my oath in Los Angeles, no date yet. What are the chances that I can change the name on the day of the ceremony? Anyone have any suggestions? Trying to get an appointment but everything is booked. Not sure what to do. Any help will be really appreciated.
My wife is in the same situation. After passing the Interview IO told her to drop her Middle/Maiden Name which was her last name before marriage and replaced it with her Middle/Maiden Name when she was single. This is incorrect because when she got married she is suppose to take her last name to become Middle/Maiden name and husband's name to become Surname/Last Name. She was pressured by the IO as she was told she had to make a decision now or re-schedule interview and she has bring a lawyer in which my wife Wife just said fine and go with it.
She just received her Notice of Oath Ceremony couple of days ago scheduled 6/13 with the incorrect name and now we are scrambling to set up an InfoPass appointment to make the case to get this corrected before the Oath Ceremony.
So far that is unsuccessful.. Keep on getting error on infopass in some case error saying she already has an appointment. We don't have confirmation or Pin.

Hello everyone. VJ has been so helpful to me on this whole journey of naturalization, I am so thankful. And this is it...Yay, I passed my N400 interview:) the only thing is I just got confuse with the Immigration Officer (IO) when he mentioned about the format of my legal name in my naturalization certificate. I am from the Philippines, so technically once we get married our last name becomes our middle name and then we carry the last name of our husband . The IO officer insisted that in US the middle name will be the last name of my mother and my last name will be the last name of my husband which means dropping my original last name. My oath taking will be on January 26 next year and I am still confuse on how to resolve this name format since all my documents will mismatch my new legal name. My Green card, social Security card all other documents here in US carry this format: first name, my fathers last name, my husbands last name. The IO told me that my legal name is suppose to be first name, my mothers last name, my husbands last name. Is there any way I can still fix this before oath taking? I just want to keep my name on the same format. first name, my fathers last name,my husbands last name. Please let me know how to do this the simpler way. Anyone had experience this? Thanks in advance
My wife is having the same issue. She had her Naturalization interview last April 25th and the IO dropped her Middle Name which is her last name when she was single and changed it to her middle name when she was single.
She just received her notice of ceremony which due to take place in June 13th and her middle name has indeed changed.
This is really ridiculous as the IO did not take the importance of her green card, passport, and SS card showing the correct name.
Now were scrambling and doing research on how to fix this before her Oath Taking Ceremony.

I need help on the error I get when setting up infopass appointment.
Last night I was able to find a NYC appointment for today at noon. After confirming the appt we did not get a confirmation or pin. We got an error " No field office found for given country code USA. " This is the same error when searching for the appointment.
Then we tried setting up a new one and now it tells us we already have an appointment and won't let us set up a new one.
Has anyone experienced this?
