I'm finally assembling the K-1 petition for my fiancee. On the G-325A form I have entered all of the names she has used over the years. I have English translations of all of the name changes, except the one where she got married ( no marriage certificate ). She has since changed her name a couple of times and has legal documents to support each one of the name changes. Is it required to have the certificate included in the package showing the name change from maiden name to married name? What to do?

Thanks.

In the I-129F form instructions on page 6, #8 c. it states that you need to provide copies of the legal documents showing name change. Since you have to include a copy of her divorce decree and she has changed her named twice since then with proof of those changes, I am not sure if they would insist on a copy of the marriage certificate from the first name change or not. http://www.uscis.gov/files/form/i-129finstr.pdf

The way I interpret that statement is that if your fiancee is using a name other than what is shown on the relevant documents ( paperwork supporting the petition ) then a document supporting the name change is required. I would think then that the marriage certificate then would not be relevant, since she no longer goes by that name.
