Hi,

I am a brazilian citizen got married to USC and I'm fillin up all the paper work to get the green card. We are planning to send off all my paper work this week but I want to change my last name for my husband's last name and I was reading some of the topics and wondering if would be smart to change my name now, before to start all the process, or after, on the interview or after that.

I need some advice.

Thanks a lot.

Mona.

If you are planning on using your husband's last name - definitely put it on your AOS application now. That way you will get your green card with your married name and won't have to worry about changing it in the future.

Filed AOS from F-1
Green Card approved on 01/04/07
Conditions removed 01/29/09

Citizenship Oath 08/23/12

Yup, it is better to use your married name in filing AOS rather than change it later.
