Name change for AOS application

Hello everybody,

A simple question...

Once we will get married, we will receive our marriage certificate. However, the names written on the marriage licence are going to be used on the certificate, i.e. my maiden name. Right?

I'd like to take my husband's name and apply to AOS/AP/EAD with my new married name. I know for AOS I will have to give a copy of the marriage certificate.

Hence my question:

Can I use the marrige certificate with my maiden and however fill out AOS forms with my married name?

Or do I have to ask for a new marriage certificate with my new name on it before filling and give a copy of that one instead?

:blush:

Thanksss!

Faustine

Your marriage certificate is going to have your maiden name on it, because that's the name you applied for the license under, and that's what two names are joined in marriage. After marriage, you just take the name of your husband on, if that's what you want. It doesn't matter what's on the certificate at all. Just fill in your AOS applications with your new married name. Period.
