Confused on how to rectify incorrect name on green card

hi guys,

now this is slightly confusing but here goes. my green card has not been issued yet but on a visit to the SSA to get my SSN that didnt arrive in the post. there is an issue with my name. i have 2 miiddle names and the DOS or whoever have issued my green card using my middle names as part of my first name for example.

my name is Jamie (first) Lee Crombie (middle) Main (last) and immigration have my name as Jamie Lee Crombie (first) Main (Last)

this has caused me issues at the SSA because there field to place my first name in didn't have enough characters thus meaning they had to get in touch with them delaying my production of my SSN. the lady has advised me to get in touch with USCIS otherwise my green card is going to has all 3 of my names as my first name which is incorrect.

having tried to call them the guy on the phone asked me for an ioe number which I didn't have and I also don't have a receipt number to log in to the elis site. I have filled in the contact me page twice no Idea when they will get around to that.

I was just wondering if anyone had any advice on how to get this sorted. its not a massive issue I just would like to be correct otherwise it may get confusing in the future.

I have read the instructions on the I-90 and I know I can change it by filing that but I don't have my green card yet so should I just wait till it comes? my idea was to try sort it before they produce it.

thank you jamie

You can't file an I-90 before you have a green card to replace.

On green cards they use (Forename) (Middle initial) (Surname). Not sure how this works with multiple middle names though. I suspect they will just initial the first one and forget the rest.

You should wait and see what name actually shows up on your green card when you receive it.
