US Immigration from Italy

Basically, me (28F) and my wife (33F) screwed up. I am Italian and we didn't know that it's almost impossible to change your last name in Italy. We got married in California and on our marriage certificate I now have my wife's last name, but I can't change it accordingly on my passport. Has anyone filed for the CR-1 visa in a situation like this (where names on the marriage certificate and passport don't match)? Is it possible (that is, we don't necessarily have to change my name back first)? If so, what name am I going to have on the green card? Thank you very much.

My spouse and I moved recently, and today I updated the address online by entering my information. I m wondering if my spouse (the petitioner) has to do the same by entering their name? So we would need to submit two different forms?
I ve been given different answers in regards to this and I just wanted to make sure.

Thank you in advance!

Hi everyone,

I came to the US with a K-1 visa after 2 years of processing, got married to a USC, then my spouse showed their true self and started being abusive towards me (sexual coercion, threats of deportation, lots of gaslighting, cut me off of all of our credit cards and removed me from our joint bank accounts, as well as an extensive abuse of drugs and alcohol.)

Anyways, I have been informing myself about VAWA and have started gathering as much evidence as possible to try to get out of this situation.

My regular AOS process is going by rather fast (March '22 filer) and was wondering whether I should submit VAWA prior to my i485 interview and go to interview without my spouse, or hold off and go to the interview with my spouse and then file for VAWA?

Is it possible to apply for VAWA and still go to the AOS interview with my spouse?

Timeline:

App (i485, i130, i131, i765) submitted - Feb 15 2022

PD - Mar 04 2022

Biometrics notice - Mar 25 2022

Biometrics appointment - Apr 19 2022

Thank you all for your help.

Anyone know how long before a police report expires? My fianc acquired a Nigerian police report back in January when he went to visit but we are still waiting for our application to be approved. He currently resides in Italy.

Thanks in advance!

Hi everyone,

my husband had his Naturalization test on March 14th. He is 31yo, was not registered to the Selective Service, we called regarding getting a status information letter and we were told than he didn't needed one. To his interview he was told that he instead needed one and only 32yo don't need to provide.

His approval for Citizenship is now pending until a letter is provided and a statement is submitted explaining why he didn't register.

We called again and requested a status letter on march 14 hoping it won't take a month or the application will be denied.

Anyone else went through the same process?
