Hello, can anyone tell me what else I need to do

I have changed my last name to my married last name since I arrived here in Usa 2010 my canadian passport has maiden last name but is in process of changing to married last name, it in Canada passport office now, all my USA ID says married name, New Canadian Passport will have married name, ONLY GREEN CARD has maiden name

but my green card still shows maiden last name,

my 2 year is up Aug 2012 so do I need to change it now or just do it when I file I751

what is the process????

Im starting to fill out I751 now and gathering documents and preparing cover letter but I am not sure if there is another form for the name change

any info I would greatly appreciate it

thank you

SMURFIN AWESOME!!!!

Do it when you send the 751. That way you don't have to pay the 400 some odd $$ to get a brand new card right before it expires then pay another 500 some odd $$ to get the removal of conditions right after.

You do not fill out a form for a name change - you fill in the 751 form with your married name in all the places it asks for your name. Then include your marriage certificate with the package.
