Where in the process can I change her name? Can it be before AOS? We are going to keep her Korean name, but add a first and last name.

Also, I want to add my Korean name to my legal English name. That is not important...

I would like to change her name before 9 months passes from when we are married.

Just trying to think ahead...

I think it's a better idea NOT to interrupt the process by changing her or your name unless it's very important and necessary as that may just delay your process timeline.

Changing names and other critical information may require re-filling out all documents (that your name or hers affect)and submitting them again. In my point of view, avoiding double-work is better and patience is a virtue.

The choice is yours anyway.

Good luck.

Sahbi.
