Olha...eu sei que pra mim foi diferente pois eu sou mulher...mas quando fiz meus papeis coloquei so meu first e meu married last name...e o meu full name no Brasil eu coloquei so onde pergunta por outras formas que seu nome aparece...ai coloquei meu first, mother's last name and father's last name...

Mas creio que de qualquer forma (usando o primeiro last name como middle name ou nao...) e permitido!

Boa sorte com o AOS :)

Obrigada Thatchi!!

Acho que vc tem razao, pois os nomes nao mudam e o ultimo sobrenome dele esta no visto como last name, ne? Tambem nao vou mandar nada que diz que os dois sobrenomes - somente o ultimo.

I used my both last names and put NONE in middle name with no issues. My I-94 stated that, my visa stated that, my SSN states that, and so does my GC.

I was hoping that would be Eliton's case, but his visa was granted using his final last name as 'last name', and his first last name as his 'middle name'. Oh well.

You could still fill out the other forms with NONE as middle name, and say it was a mistake in the visa.

I always used my last names as "middle names" in all the documents filled and never had any problem with that. Now I have my husband's last name too, so it means 3 last names. I use to fill up the forms with my name, 2 middle names and a last name. It works for the US ....where you are just the father's child, and the mother is nobody important enough, but the mother. This is not personal, just cultural.

In Brazil we are not only son/daugher of your father...you also "belongs" to your mother, so everyone will have both names....mother and father...to keep their name as an "inheritance" or something like that...and I didn't want to get rid of any of them, becuse it also means my grandparents name, etc... I had the right to remove one of the names after the marriage but I didn't want. In the past it was always the mother's name, but now you can choose even not to change or maybe the husband will change.
