Will not change name after marriage

 Share

I am going to the US on a K1 visa and applying for a SS number a couple of days after my arrival (as what people here have suggested). So after my fiance and I get married, if I don't change my name and maintain my maiden name, what problems would I encounter? Will not changing my name actually make things easier for me with regards to filing paperworks? Or no?

 

Any input is much appreciated. Thanks! :)

Changing your name really doesn't take that long and is a very easy process. The more difficult part for you would be getting a new passport from your home country with your new name. But the decision is entirely up to you, not everyone decides to change their name.
