I had my biometrics done earlier today. I went to the Elizabeth NJ office. Everything I read about the Elizabeth USC is true.?? I was there from 11:30-2:35 my appointment was 12nn. When I got to the receptionist, I have my appointment letter and ID. On my ID I still have my maiden name while my USCIS letter I had my married name. The lady asked me "you got married?" I said yes. Then she asked for my Marriage Cert?? I told her, I didnt think I needed to bring it because on the USCIS bio letter it states you only need to bring the apointment letter and ID. I also didnt think I need to show my marriage cert because obviosly I am here to adjust my status to a GC holder because I got married!! (duh) Then she said, You need to talk to my manager. Boom she brought me to the mgrs office, who was on lunch from 12:00-1:00, so I waited outside her office for 1 hr. There were 20 of us waiting for her. They went by what was on my ID which is my maiden name. I asked the supervisor what name will appear on my ead, greencard etc. now that on my biometrics they changed it to my maiden name. They gave me no answer :( I think I just have to wait and see.. I will keep praying. That's my story..oh, try the empanadas right across the office OMG amazing!! :) all the best to everyone!

Unfortunately, they're right. It goes with any legal documents like when you get a drivers license etc. You have your ID with your maiden name on and the marriage certificate is proof of your name change. Without that they aren't able to take your word. If your name on your passport is 'Jones' and then you say "Oh no, it's Smith", they need to go on whatever your offical Identification documents say. I'm sorry this happened to you. Have you called up USCIS to see what to do?
