I’m transgender but haven’t yet got my legal name changed, when filing I-129f for my fiancé, should I put my preferred name in the “Other names” “Given name” section? And then in part 8 for additional information, I explain it? Something like “This is the name that people refer to me as in real life as I’m transgender, but it is not used in anything legal.” Is that a good idea?
Also, some other questions:
1.) Me and my fiancé are making letters of intention to marry, do we put my legal name on those?
2.) If this petition is accepted, will the person interviewing my fiancé be aware of my preferred name and gender? Because my fiancé will be calling me “he” while I’m a biological female, or should he just use she anyways? This is just something that I’m really paranoid about, and I don’t want him to lose his chances of coming to the United States or for this process to take longer.
