Social Security Number Troubles

[I'm Gone 60]

1. Her I-94 expires on September 6, do we still have time left to get a SSN with it? No

2. Was that lady just very confused that told us the names wouldn't match so she couldn't not do it? Yes

C. Procedure - Immigration Document as Evidence of Legal Name

When issuing immigration documents, the Department of State and Department of Homeland Security issue them in the person’s legal name. The legal name is also generally the name in which the foreign passport was issued.

When an alien applies for an SSN card, SSA presumes the name on the immigration document is the legal name unless the applicant presents evidence of a legal name change (e.g., marriage) that occurred after the immigration document was issued.

3. Julie should be using her new legal name for everything from now on? (AOS + EAD) Yes if that;s what she plans to use for things like a driver's license and work

4. We should now work on EAD and AOS right? I think it's a good idea

No. Some MCs do not even have the married name on it, either printed OR signed!

California MC has the groom's full name, the bride's full maiden name and a bunch of useless biographical information, like how many years of education they both have It doesn't state what names the bride and groom are going to use after the marriage. The assumption is, either one of them can change the last name or keep the same name. I suppose, hyphenated names are also allowed.
