Hi everyone and congratulations to us all for finally making to US to be with our love ones. Oh my POE was February 12th and I received my green card in April 16th but it has my maiden name on it so I can USCIS and they promise to make correction by sending the new one with my married name on it but I should still hold on to the one I have already. So I will advice you call USCIS immediately.

I did call them last week, but they wouldn't give me any information because "I have to wait 120 days since my POE", which is stupid! When I called it was exactly 3 months and 3 weeks but they wouldn't tell me anything.

I will call again on Thursday, since it's going to be exactly 4 months since my POE.

I got all of my documents ready in front of me before I call USCIS but the representative only asked for my A-number and my green card receipt number. So I will advice you put all of your documents in front of you before calling in case they ask for any of it then you will be ready. Good luck
