I'm Hispanic so my foreign passport shows my name as Alex Rodrigo Guzman Lopez.

Ever since i moved to the US i've been using Alex Rodrigo Guzman (one last name); Social Security Card; Credit Cards; Apartment Lease, Phone Bills, W-2, work information, IRS: everything has only one last name. I am on F-1 Student Visa and just got my OPT CARD that shows my full name,

So i went to renew my Drivers License in NJ and they changed my name to both of my last names even though i was begging them not to.

So now my Driver's License shows Alex Rodrigo Guzmanlopez (no Space) and i really have a bad feeling this is going to affect all my accounts here in the US. is there anything i can do so i can go back to my last name ? Alex Rodrigo Guzman ?

Please help,

Thanks

PS: I am applying for work visa in this April 2012.

They are required to put your legal name on the documents and that is your legal name so they are correct to do it. You should go and get it fixed to the two names with a space or at least hyphenated but it's your legal name. Only way to change it is to get a legal name change.
