Hi to all..im already married and wanna know if the last name of my birth certificate should be my middle now that im already married..cuz my husband say that i should use my middle name still ..like not to change it cuz it is how it is here in us. I just wanna know if his right cuz i gotta file my AOS Soon.....and if any one knows about the biometric thing...when should i do it?

I might be misunderstanding your question but from what I'm understanding... You want to know if you have to use your maiden name? which was your former last name not middle name. Since your married you can drop the last name and change to your husband's. This is common practice for woman. You can also choose to keep your former last name and add your husband's last name some women do that too.

SO if you were lets say married Mary Clark

and your husband's name is John English

You can either be Mary English

or Mary Clark-English

Sorry I may have totally misunderstood your question if so just disregard my comment.

I think your husband was suggesting that you drop your last name (maiden name) and use his, so Ann Lacer David would be correct. Your first, middle and his last name.

yes he is right. There is no need to drop your own middle name. If you want to keep your last ( maiden) name you could just be Ann Lacer Villa-David. It's completely up to you. Your middle name doesnt really have an effect on anything.
