Hi All,

After our marriage my wife has since used married name on the marriage certificate and there is a change of name affidavit too that was filed together in our home country which is customary.

Her GC F2a i130 form was also approved and it also has married name. However my wife passport still has a maiden name. Is this a problem for her Aos 485 application forms? What name should I use in the application form..should I put down her passport name which is in her maiden name or should I use the married name and also attach our marriage certificate and our home country affidavit to that effect that the name refers to the same person.

Pls advise if anyone has faced this problem before and share the experience

Thanks

Anand

Married name if what she goes by now, no need for affidavit as long as you have the marriage certificate.
