Hello all,

I'm a Dec flier who just got married this Sat and I'm filling out the adjustment paperwork. Due to my job and all of the clinical licenses I'd have to get changed, for the time being we were just going to keep using my last name. Has anyone tried going through the adjustment paperwork period and submitted everything with the name not changed? Also FYI, SAVEYOUR NOA2 in a secure place! I thought mine was fine and when we went to go find it, nope and we tore the house apart tonight with no luck.

Sorry to hear about your NOA2. I've heard of people printing a copy of the USCIS case status webpage showing approval in lieu of the NOA2.

I don't think you'll have any problems with keeping your name the same. Plenty of others have done this. Your name only changes if you choose to take your husband's name.
