marriage in maryland before getting SSN

[ericsami 0]

Hi folks,

with the thanks to all the info I have read on this site and it's lovely Contributors we are finally out of woods.

my fiancee is finally out of Administrative processing of U.S Embassy in Abu Dhabi (United Arab Emirates). That process fortunately only took 25 days which is three days short of 2-4 weeks estimate the embassy staff had provided at the time of the interview.

I have already acquired marriage license from state of Maryland.

The county administering the marriage does not require her to have social security number.

does any one see any problem with me first having the marriage (getting that out of way since I have an appointment for it).

and then heading to social security office to get her a social security number.

I actually think this might save me some time because the name change occurs on the marriage license so i can apply for her social security card with her married name.

any insight?

That is exactly what my wife and I did so that we did not have to do any name changes and everything going forward was in her married name.

You might face only one problem, SSN office may not issue a SSN number if she is married to you, until you are done with AOS process.

becareful of name change, I was considering the same thing for my fiancee, but I end up giving up becasue then she has to change her name on her iranian passport/ birth certificate and etc. and is pain in the..... dealing with interest section of iran in DC.

if she doen't change it on iranian password, what if she decide to travel to iran, when with which name should she reserver the ticket?! correct me if I'm incorrect.

about name changes, I have had my brother change his first during his citizenship process. he even went so far as to remove his middle name completely as well.

yet when he travels to iran he just puts all the names the ticket and he has no problem. so for instance he puts an aggregate names on all his passports (iranian and american)

thus far he has travled twice he has not had a problem (The arilines seem to be familar with the problem.)
