Filed at Chicago Lockbox. At fingerprints and biometrics in Charlotte, we were at first not allowed in since her passport had her maiden name and her receipt(NOA) is in her new last name. I said that I had asked this question while making the appt, and I was told this would not be problem. Then they asked for a marriage certificate. I said that the certificate was sent in with the application, otherwise we would not have gotten the NOA in the first place. The gatekeeper went back and talked to the CIS official, then came back 5 minutes later and let us in. While my wife was getting the fingerprints done, the technician doing the prints asked for a marriage certificate. My wife told him that it was sent in with the application. He nodded and simply continued and finished all her biometrics (for both EAD and AOS). SO moral is to have the applicant\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'s identification in the exact name as the NOA notices. So if applicant changes name, get a state ID card in the new name or get the passport changed to the new name, or bring your application with Marriage certificate with you.

*Notice about estimates: The estimates are based off averages of other members recent experiences
(documented in their timelines) for the same benefit/petition/application at the same filing location.
Individual results may vary as every case is not always 'average'. Past performance does not necessarily
predict future results. The 'as early as date' may change over time based on current reported processing
times from members. There have historically been cases where a benefit/petition/application processing
briefly slows down or stops and this can not be predicted. Use these dates as reference only and do not
rely on them for planning. As always you should check the
USCIS processing times to see if your application
is past due.
** Not all cases are transfered
