Name changes with naturalization are done through the courts. So you can really request any name you want. Now how your birth country will deal with it will be another story.

~~Multiple posts edited to removed attachments with personal information showing.~~ Mod hat off The letter from the DMV is not unusual and happens a lot. It just means they can't find you in the system, try again later. Happened to me with my K1 took more then a couple of weeks, thinking maybe a month. Wish I could remember exactly, but I've slept since then. It happens a lot with K1's who change their last name before they file for AOS. The system is not smart enough to look for maiden name searches. Name changes are one of many reasons why it can't find someone. My guess it is your address change that is contributing to the system failure. If you haven't updated your address yet do so now. If you have call and check to see if it has actually been updated. Now with your going back and forth about authorized stay vs legal stay you are correct they are not the same. But most of the time it's only an issue if you leave the country before you complete your AOS. Since all that time you were here out of status is right back where it was previously and lands you with an overstay. Now since you want to work in one of the few fields that require you to be a permanent resident or USC, you have come to find out that authorize and legal are not equal. That's a bummer and nothing to do but wait it out.

If you had your interview you can update when you enter and endorse your visa. If no interview you can update the address then. Expedite approvals for Montreal is very rare. Visiting is usually allowed. It's just the odd time someone at the border doesn't know its allowed.

My repair job with evaporated milk. They look pretty good now. I love how well evaporated milk works and I always have it in the house. Crazy glue not so much.

Yes sometime around the late 80's early 90's my Aunt did just that. Arrived at the border with all their stuff along with kids and moved, married and adjusted. So sometime after that it was stopped for at least the Canadians.

Oh I wish I could. I don't want the Hillbilly to worry about his parents freezing to death. But I tell you one thing for sure he is dealing with all my complaining and them also. Yay for an even better place. Congratulations.
