g325 question on family name

[Rose-Romagnoli 0]

I have my husband's spouse visa package all together, but I am not clear exactly on what to write in a couple of places.

My 325--what do I put at the top under my family name? Maiden or married name?

at the bottom, do I reprint my information or his information. At the bottom of his 325, his infor or mine?

My husband was named Benito Alessandro Romagnoli at birth, but on his birth cert. it was written Romagnoli Benito, Alessandro. Because of the comma, Alessandro is not recognized as part of his name and it has been removed. His passport is just Romagnoli Benito, but I do not have a name change document. Is a "middle" name such a big deal?

Thanks to everyone for the help!!!

If his official papers only show Benito as his name, I don't think there should be any problems with putting just that on the form. I am officially called Maria Raffaella, and put both names as my first name - and NO middle name, as in Italy middle names are not commonly used. Anyway, for your peace of mind, you could try putting Alessandro in as his middle name, since this is what it shows on his birth certificate. Even if the information was redundant, it's always better to have more of it than less.

Thank you highway star!

I called my lawyer and she confirmed that if he WANTS to be known here legally as Benito Romagnoli only, then we fill in the forms as such. As of right now the lawyer had me write an explanation of the birth certificate, and everything seems to be in order.

I certainly hope it is all good, because I sent it off today! Now I get to start a timeline and be able to share experiences instead of just asking.
