US Immigration from Vietnam

I've seen numerous posts about this topic, but I am still confused. For my Fiancee's paperwork, passport, and K-1 visa her name all matches, which is:

Surname: Nguyen (Example)

Given Name: Thi Thu Trang (Example)

Her airplane ticket is in this order.

In Vietnamese, her surname would be "Nguyen", her middle name "Thi", and her Vietnamese Given Name is "Thu Trang". A lot of Vietnamese have 2 names as their First Name. (Last, Middle, First #1, First #2)

For Social Security Administration (SSA) and Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) purposes, we know we should match it exactly like how it appears on her I-94 entry form (Thi Thu Trang Nguyen).

For everything else, including our upcoming Adjustment of Status (AOS) paperwork, Removal of Conditions (ROC) paperwork, rental/lease agreements, employer health, dental, vision insurance, utility bills, and credit card/bank statements,
Should the correct 'American Name Order' be:

Trang Thi Thu Nguyen (First #2, Middle, First #1, Last) or

Trang Thu Thi Nguyen (First #2, First #1, Middle, Last) or
Thu Trang Thi Nguyen (First #1, First #2, Middle, Last)

It's a bit awkward for my Fiancee to get used to having her name switched around which I am sure everyone here (and their relatives and spouse) has had to deal with as well when first coming to the states.

Thank you so much!

Hi all,

Does anyone know the correct filing fee for an adult filing with a child for I751.
my application was rejected due to wrong filing fee. I thought it was supposed to 750 for adult and 85 for child for biometric fee. Somy check was for 835. Am I supposed to send 750, or 1500 since there s 2 of them on the package. Any help would be greatly appreciated

My wife has dual citizenship to the US and Vietnam. When she became a U.S. citizen in 2017 we were childless, and still are. She is 45, I am 69. We lost a child at childbirth and could never conceive again. She so much wanted a child, and although we inquired into adopting, no organization we spoke with gave us any hope because of my age.

Now her Niece in Vietnam is pregnant and only wants to keep the child if it becomes a male ( yes, I know that sound s callous, but that s nothing we can control and no, they don t have the opportunity to have a ultrasound to determine the sex). So the Niece knowing that my wife always wanted a daughter is willing to give up the baby to my wife to adopt if it is a girl. ( No money involved or offered). Just keeping the baby in the family. ( Please don t judge, that s not what we are asking for ). Does anyone have any known experience with this kind of situation? Any thoughts are appreciated .and yes, we know about the baby possibly being born with possible health concerns.

I am Vietnamese-American and my Fianc e is Vietnamese National. We both speak Vietnamese to one another (which is pretty uncommon for this site I guess?).
Has anyone had trouble at Port of Entry (SFO, SF Int'l specifically) for their Fianc e at a POE and required secondary inspection? Will they have translators there at POE (SF)?

Thank you so much!

Hi,

I was wondering for USCIS Adjustment of Status purposes, if a city hall/courthouse wedding is acceptable at first, and then a couple of months later, if an interview is required for our I-485 (App. to Register Permanent Residence), if we can bring evidence/photos/video proof of an actual wedding celebration then. I have a giant family here in the U.S. and it will take months to book a venue, and have "evidence" of a wedding celebration. We hope to have the "legal" marriage first at city hall/courthouse and wasn't sure if USCIS would accept this as adequate proof of bonafide marriage evidence.

Thanks!
