Hi everyone. This is my first time posting so please forgive me if use the wrong format or leave out something. Back on 9/18/2019 we received I-797 stating my wife's I-130 has been sent to the NVC. Since we originally filed the I-130 we have been trying to get USCIS and now the NVC to update my wife's name to her new married name. The NVC still shows her maiden name. I am actually working with a lawyer throughout this whole process and she told me she wants to have my wife's name fixed before we file the DS260 and upload to CEAC. The lawyer said there is a good chance my wife's name will be wrong on the visa if we do not get it fixed now before filing. IF the visa is issued in the wrong name I am told the airline will most likely turn my wife away at the airport because her passport name does not match the visa name. My lawyer said if we do move forward and file now we can try to get the US embassy in Manila to fix her name when she is at the interview but even then there are no guarantees the visa will be issued with the correct name. Does anyone have any experience with trying to fix a name during this spouse visa process? I really don't want my wife to be turned away the airport if they did issue her visa in the wrong name. Also we have already submitted a public inquiry to the NVC back on November 4th and have not heard anything back. Every time we call NVC it goes straight to voicemail. My lawyer also said she has other clients that are on their third public inquiry and have not heard anything back yet before they mail their congressman. Thank you
