I-751 Question RE: how to show name & children

[katand7 0]

Hi All:

Can't believe that the time has gone by so fast....but here we are, getting ready to file I-751 in September. Now that I have gotten over my initial shock and depression at the fee increases I am getting things in order.

Here are my questions:

1. When filling out the part that shows spouse information (i.e. my information) - Part 4 of the I-751, do I list my name as it is now, that is my married name? Or do I have to list my information as it was when I filed the original fiancee petition?

2. When it comes to the kids, I have children from a previous marriage. Should their information be shown in Part 5 with the notation that they are his stepchildren and are US Citizens or should this be blank since he has no biological children of his own?

3. My hubby is planning trip home to Australia in February 2008. As long as he has the letter from USCIS saying they have received the I-751 along with his green card and valid AUS passport then he should have no problem travelling, right?

Thanks one and all for any information you can give!

I answered all of my own questions except one.........which is how I should show my name as the spouse. I assume I just show it as it is on all my legal documents (Drivers License, SS card, etc.) Does anyone have any suggestions or info?

Thank you!

(Oh and if you don't know or don't have an opinion you can just say hi to me since I have been MIA for so long!)

Hi Katand7,

Long time no see....

Use the name you are using for everyday life... list all children step or natural... and yes once he has the NOA1 extending the Greencard he can travel outside the US....

Good to see you again..
