He wants to change his name when he comes to the US. How would we go about doing this?

Currently.... they have issued Ice the incorrect GC and we have tried 4 times to fix it. First time they had us send it to the incorrect address. Second time they said we used an expired form, which was the form they gave us. Third time was "oh sorry we lost the last page, can you send it again?." Fourth time is the gov is shut down. Will this ever be corrected in time for Ice to get the permanent GC? Stay tuned to find out. T_T

Usually, a name change can be started with the county courthouse, is a 'name change petition/document' that is filed with the court.

Once ya got that, can show the stamped document to every entity that needs to see it (SSA, DMV, Bank, etc)

Check yer county courthouse, inquire it's procedures, soonish ?

Sometimes my language usage seems confusing - please feel free to 'read it twice', just in case !
Ya know, you can find the answer to your question with the advanced search tool, when using a PC? Ditch the handphone, come back later on a PC, and try again.

Yes, you can just change it once you marry. My wife changed both her first and last. Then once you get your license you can change the SS card name, and put the new name on all the docs when you adjust status.

They would not allow my wife to change her first name when we got married.. she had no problem taking my surname.. she had to change it when we did AOS before it could be recognized by anyone else..

It would be my future husband, and he wants to change first and last name. Is that going to be complicated?

Yeah, it probably depends on the state/county/parrish. I'd follow what Darnell said
