Right, you lot are probably going to be so sick of me. I know I said that my fiance and I have chosen to go down the CR-1 route, but now because of the time frame of being apart, we may be looking at the K-3. My question is this though, because I am here in the UK, I am not able to legally change my name on my passport and social security card until I get back to the states, what about the paperwork for Ian's application? What name do I use, my old name or my new married name? I have already started filling them out, and got to thinking that nothing will match my married name except for the marriage certificate. Can I get away with using my married name even though I can't legally change it until I get back to the states? Any advice will be helpful. BTW...we are getting married on the 29th of April. I have never been so excited about getting married...even with my first marriage, it was more like going to my death lol.

Cheers for all the help...

I used my married name but I got an RFE stating that I have to use the name on my passport. My name was legally changed when I got married and it has it on my marriage certificate but my passport was not changed.

Now everything I get from them is in my maiden name
