If your end goal is to live together in the US, then it will not have an affect on the process. If you were to move to El Salvador, it is recommended to register your marriage and your daughter's birth* at the Seattle consulate.

*You can register her birth even if your goal is to live in the US. She is eligible for dual citizenship because of Salvadoran law. After registration, she will be eligible for a Salvadoran passport; thus no need to pay the $10 tourist fee to enter CA-4 area (El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, and Nicaragua) and, as of now, visa-free travel to Brazil, Paraguay, Russia, Turkey and visa on arrival in Iran: https://www.passportindex.org/comparebyPassport.php?p1=us&p2=sv&fl=&s=yes

Thank you so much, my daughter has a passport right  to go visit her dad next year when he leaves. From the U.S. But we will probably do dual citizenship eventually. And yes we will both be living here in the U.S. 

We are married, my husband is getting deported in January to El Salvador. We have been together since 2010 have 1 daughter. My question is, I never took his last name because I didnt want to deal with all the name changing of paperwork and ID's etc so I left my last name alone. Does that effect our process?
