drewjoy,

what other name do you have???

If you are applying for K-1 as your signature says, you can't be married.

So... you can't have "maiden" and "married" name yet. You should only have your "normal" i.e. legal name you use all the time!

Good luck with the interview :)

I129F process:

20 July '06- I129F filed with CSC (Got a lawyer - BIG MISTAKE... Didn't know of VJ!!!)

28 July '06 - NOA1

08 Dec '06 - NOA2

06 Feb '07 - medical

12 Mar '07 ----- INTERVIEW ----- A P P R O V E D -----

4 Apr '07 - US entry - San Francisco

1 July '07 - MARRIED in SF :)

AOS process (after K-1):

24 July '07 - AOS application received by Chicago Office

09 August '07 - Biometrics appt letter

24 August '07 - RFE for I-485 (incomplete tax info sent!)

28 August '07 - NOA letters for AOS, EAD and AP

29 August '07 - Biometrics

AP - 12 October '07 - hard copy: multiple travel, valid 12 months

EAD - 18 October '07 - hard copy: valid from the date of 1st notice of card production

SSN - 30 October '07 (married name), applied Oct 18, same day I got my EAD

DL - 11 December '07 - driving test at DMV San Francisco. Yay! Now I can drive on the "wrong" side of the road!

21 November '07 - AOS Interview (Letter rec'd Oct 15) ----- A P P R O V E D ----- A P P R O V E D ----- A P P R O V E D -----

To correct my own reply above as my comp is playing up, can't click on any links, can't edit my own post, and I mixed up the OP and the first reply. Oops!

What I meant to say is:

drewjoy,

If you are already filing for AOS (I can't open your timeline link to see where you are in the process) - then you use the name you put on your AOS application forms. It is better to use your married name. That way USCIS will have you registered under your married name straight away. It will also save you some hassle (and money!) later on.

Wherever you go, carry your marriage certificate to prove change of name untill you receive EAD and/or Green Card later.

Good luck with the whole process :)
