GarynMarie,

Has she ever used her maiden name before?

If so, and her maiden name is not the surname she put on the top line, then 'Other Names Used' asks for it.

Thanks Yodrak- I was almost sure that we would put her Maiden name in this block but it kinda seemed like maybe they meant names currently being used-like nick names,etc... because in the I-130 they added(including maiden name), I guess that is what confused me. Thanks Again Yodrak, Your help is ever so much appreciated.

what is the basis that made you sure to put her Maiden name? My opinion is going with what is official, certified, etc, like official change of name, after marriage...and consequently the changed name on other official papers, cards, etc...if not, and until the official married name change is not done, i won't put it...because i can not use it just because i decided it myself...in my opinion i can not do that...If it's something else than official, i would explain it on an attached sheet (i.e., nickname, etc)...just in case to make very sure, they have all the infos they need...in the official sens and not official...!!!

I didnt say I was sure. I said I was almost sure . On what basis? - on the basis that whenever "other names used" has been asked for so far, it has meant to include "Maiden Name" and even states so, but in this case it did not say "including maiden" which is why I asked. I also have an opinion- My opinion is Maries name was changed at the very moment her and I were married August 15th . She is in the process right now of making that change on her documents. As for being official-Her married name is on one of those papers I looked at after our wedding. Maybe it was something sent to the NSO or maybe it was in the cival registry files-I cant remember-I gave up on trying to understand what papers went where in the Philippines. I just let Marie handle all of that. I just remember seeing my wifes married name on one of the papers after we got married which I would imagine make her married name "official"

Hi,

Gary you are correct, when you got married her name changed officially if thats what you guys chose. In the Philippines there is no "official" name change paper. The civil registry MC and the nso MC just have the madien name on it certifying that you are married...then its your choice what name to use, by having her id's changed to reflect the married name shows which name you chose. So again you are correct, however i would be interested to know what paper you saw that had your wifes married name on it? If she is now using your last name....then her maiden name should be put down on all papers that ask for "other names used".

I have noooooo idea Jazzy, like I said I gave up on trying to understand what papers were what and where they were going and what purpose the papers served. At first glance in the cival registry office at the municipality in the town Marie is from it would seem like everything there is in such disorder (forms and documents stuffed in folders piled here and there) but somehow it all gets done . We didnt get our license until the morning of our wedding and it was chaos we were going from room to room,up and down stairs because they had our birthdates wrong on the license. Meanwhile the judge was waiting for us- we were now late. And then after the marriage we also had to go do something with the papers, I think have them sent to the NSO (again,I could be wrong) and also I was dying in pain from a pinched nerve in my back from sleeping in my wifes bed, I could barely walk. But dont get me wrong-It was the greatest day ever because I was married to my Beautiful Marie and I would go through much much worse if I had to . Anyway- I will ask Marie what it was that I seen her signed married name on and get back to you. I am going to be talking to her on Tuesday.Thanks for the input and have a nice Labor Day weekend- Gary

Oh! I don't know how the official name change works in Philippines. You said you saw "some papers"...i would make sure, asking her what exact papers, official or not?

As for the marriage certificate...I do not have my maiden name on that official paper, maybe why it's confusing i think...I think the name change is the next step...Briefly, if her maiden name is clearly indicated on the marriage certificate...then that means she "used" it...in any case...if she put her maiden name on papers, again, she used it...then forget what i said...and Good luck!

knowledge,

The name on one's birth certificate is not 'official use' of the name? Most people use that name for at least some period of time in their life.
