We are thinking of sending a I-130 request to the London office as my wife is a American residing in the UK resident for over 2 years now.

Looking at the “Checklist for petition for alien spouse”, I am a little confused by the “Record of Name Change”.

My wife and I got married in the US about 2 years and a half ago, her maiden name appeared on the marriage certificate. However, since then, she applied in the US to change her SSN as well as her passport name to my family name.

Does this situation mean that we need extra document to support her name change or does the marriage certificate on its own support that?

I do believe she did not need any additional document, nor received confirmation of name changed when she applied for the SSN and passport change.

Am I reading too much into this? My wife is telling me that just the marriage certificate would be enough to support the name change?

Thanks!
