I got married on June 13th, and am ready to file AOS, but I want to change my name first. How do I do that?

I used my maiden name to sign the marriage license, I didn't realize that was a way to officially change my name.

So how do I proceed now? I went to Secretary of State, they said I need to change my name of my social security card first (I have a ss # since I have studied/worked in the US years ago), then I went to Social Security office and they told me since I am not a permanent resident, they cannot do anything.

So what now? Shall I just fill out all the AOS form with my husband's name although I have not taken any actions to change it? How do I change it?

Shall I just give up and file with my maiden name

Heeeelllllpppp

Thanks!!!!

I arrived yesterday (POE: Detroit) on a K-1 and it literally took me 5 minutes! He just asked me my paperwork, asked what my fiance does for a living, informed me that I have to get married within 90 days, and leave the country before these 90 days... For the last information, ummm, whatever, don't know where he got that info from!

Anyway, 5 minutes!

Wow Thanks Bruno, I think you just saved me a huge deal of hassle... I thought that if anything being pregnant will facilitate the process. And now I found out that it actually makes things more complicated since my fiance needs to assert again he is still willing to marry me, and that should be a notarized statement... *faints*

Good luck to you too, seems like you'll be in my shoes in a couple of months alors courage

Hi everyone,

I am scheduled for my visa interview on June 3rd at the Paris Embassy. Prior to that, I must complete a medical exam on May 31st to which I must bring recent chest X-ray. I am 9 weeks pregnant and therefore any form of radiation should be avoided.

What shall I do? No X-rays means no medical exam. No medical exam means no visa interview! Obviously I want to be with my fiance during the whole pregnancy so postponing is NOT an option. I am currently in the US on a visa waiver but am flying back next Thursday for the visa interview.

Thanks!
