Hi everyone, when my wife petitioned me and I received my green card, she was still using her maiden name. As a surprise to me for my birthday last year, she changed her name and legally took on my family name. We will be sending in our I-751 next week. Will there be a problem since her name is different now from when we filed my AOS?

It shouldn't be. The two of you now have the same last name and it is a very common thing for the wife to take the husband's last name. Since this is an application for removal of conditions for permanent residency based upon marriage to a US citizen, they know that you two are married (VBG).

“...Isn't it splendid to think of all the things there are to find out about? It just makes me feel glad to be alive--it's such an interesting world. It wouldn't be half so interesting if we knew all about everything, would it? There'd be no scope for imagination then, would there?”
