Hello,

We just got married last week and now we are headed to the AoS procedure.

On the marriage certificate my name is still the same and it does not say I take his family name.

And here comes the question- What name to use when filling out all the AoS forms?

Do I have to go to the court house and get some special certificate which say I have new family name after the marriage?

If you want to take his name then just fill out the AOS paperwork in the new married name. USCIS will accept your marriage cert as proof of name change. You do not need a court order.

The marriage certificate allows you to use your husbands name from now on :) It is correct that it has your maiden name on it. Just make sure you change the name on your social security card and use your married name on all the AOS papers.
