I don't think Georgia had any tone but informative :-) This is copied from the instructions for i485: "You must submit a completed Form G-325A if you are between 14 and 79 years of age."

I hope everyone else moves quickly through the process! Its very frustrating! I don't expect the GC side of things to move this quickly for me as I am in NYC city field office which is taking quite a while, but at least I can start working!!!!

Hi!

Just got my RFE through. I sent all the documents correctly for the AOS but they are asking for the tax return for my wife in her new married name. We sent her tax return which is in her maiden name because that was her name when she filed. As we both changed our names after our wedding in Sept there is no tax return in her new married name. Do you think the best way to respond to this is to send the original tax return as before but include another copy of our marriage certificate showing both maiden name and new name and birth cert in maiden name along with a letter explaining that she is the same person and sign the letter with both her maiden name and married name for confirmation of signature? Has anyone else had this issue?

There was hardly anyone there when my husband went in. As far as I know for NM agencies in general though, going in Monday or Friday is not a good idea. Everywhere seems more busy those days. My husband went on a Thursday. A Tuesday or Wednesday might be ok too. He called ahead and they said he could walk-in as long as they had a tech that day.
