THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!! This post has more answers then almost 20 hours of googling trying to clarify some of those details... I think the only other question I have left is, what about my step-daughter. Can she change her name similarly like can she put new name under legal and use the Part 14. Additional Information to stipulate birth name or will we need to wait until everything is processed and do a regular name change later?

Sorry, I wasn't clear. Wife and step-daughter entered on K-1 and K-2

My (now) wife and step-daughter arrived in the US and we've since been married but haven't filed any forms. Both my wife and step-daughter want to change their names but I'm confused when and how to do this. From what I'm now reading I think I messed up in that I should've requested SS cards as soon as they arrived and if what I've read is correct my wife should've signed the name she wants on the marriage certificate??? Which confuses me since I thought it was a legal document and she had to use her current legal name???? I haven't filed the i-485 or i-765 or requested SS cards and I'm so confused as to what I should do first to get names changed and get the next steps going. I just don't want to screw anything up, Thanks for help.
