my wife was here 24 years befor she met me. We married, filed all the aos paperwork, got combo card ead/ap card. Went straight to SS and got a number 2 weeks later. off to DMV and got State ID (she does not drive) got her Job. and then her green card. her past never came up as a problem. Could be the way you present yourself to these different agencies. most jobs do theit own background checks (Called Cori Checks) and it does take a bit for your updated info to get in the system as the agencies involved do not talk to each other in the back ground.
