US Citizenship General DiscussionName change, question
Will the fact that the old name on the name change certificate is not the same as the old name in SSA's record not matter, though? I will not be given trouble for that?
Or will they only need to see the actual naturalization certificate?

US Citizenship General DiscussionName change, question
So, I will be taking my oath on the Friday after next. I will be changing my name too. The problem (?) lies herein:
I have two first names, a middle (mother's maiden) and last. Let's say it's Mary Ann Lim Cruz.
When I got married, I took on my husband's last name, but followed the Philippine name change convention, and went to this:
Mary Ann Cruz Smith
That is what SSA has on record. This is what my 2 year green card had as well.
When I got my 10 year green card, the IO said I had to follow the US name changing convention, and wrote over my form and entered my name as:
Mary Ann Lim Smith
I said it was no problem, was approved. However, when I got the 10 year green card, it still had this name:
Mary Ann Cruz Smith
:blink:
So.. I continued to use this name, because that's what my green card said, and what was in my SSA record.

On to naturalization. I got the same IO during my test. He said, "Good thing you're changing your name, because there's a problem with it." :wacko: He crossed out Cruz, put in Lim as my middle name. My new name will be Mary Cruz Smith, changing from Mary Ann Lim Smith.
I was approved, name change will happen, and oath taking will be on the 4th.

So. My certificate for name change will show from Mary Ann Lim Smith to Mary Cruz Smith.
However, all my papers (mortgage, insurance, SSA, IRS, BMV, etc) show my name was Mary Ann Cruz Smith..
Is this going to be a problem? I'm mostly concerned about the SSA... will changing my name from what they have to what my new name will be, when my cert's old name (Mary Ann Lim Smith) doesn't match their records (Mary Ann Cruz Smith), be a problem? :unsure:

Add to that our tax filing :help: What name do I file with? I'm going nuts...

US Citizenship General DiscussionWho has recently applied for US Passport?
I applied Feb 11, I believe. I'm not 100% certain, but it's not far from that date. Received my passport today. No passport card yet, or naturalization certificate. I did not get a tracking number, just found the packet in the mailbox when I got home.

Congratulation. What happened to ezzie does she got the interveiw.


Thanks!
Unfortunately, no news from ezzie still. I'm also eager to hear from Mo007. Since Columbus is the capital, and they have more oath taking ceremonies there, I was hoping he'd go first and get some hints and tips! It would be nice to get this all over with, but I'm still apprehensive about my name change :(

@duly - grats, and good luck!! Our table is filling up nicely, so really, good luck to everyone :)
It's manoymonic's turn at the interview seat today! :thumbs:

I was thinking in name change also, but I did some research online and looks like takes about 6 more month to get the oath ceremony. good luck to you.!!!!


Oh, I know what you mean! I actually did have like three or four copies of the application form because I kept changing my mind about my name change. But because I've been having problems with it (two first names, one middle name, one last name that people have written as one compound first name, one middle, one last, or as first name, second first as middle, omitted middle, and then last) I figured I might as well make it easier for everyone. I might have to wait a few months longer, but the benefits would be for the rest of my life :P In any case, the immigration officer did say that the oath taking should be scheduled within the next month - maybe it's not as rare in Ohio as it is in other states? Apparently the ceremonies for our district are normally held in the federal court in Cleveland, so either way, it would have been scheduled around the same time? I'm still hopeful!

@NickD - I brought my driver's license with me (because I drove there :lol: ) to use as my other gov't issued photo ID, but the immigration officer didn't even want to look at it (I offered, since it was in the same wallet slot as my green card). I also brought everything they had on the list (which was pretty much everything I had submitted before, only they wanted the originals) and he only looked at the latest tax transcript. I guess it's better to have too much in your bag than too little.. it was just a pain to get together, and annoying to know I didn't really need more than two sheets. Oh well.

Good luck, everyone! I see those interview dates looming closer. It'll be here in no time :)

US Citizenship General DiscussionN-400 November 2010 Filers
Well, my interview was yesterday in Cleveland. I ended up arriving freakishly early, so I chilled out at a deli for a bit. Went to the federal building STILL earlier than I should have, but I figured I might as well stay warm in there and watch the news on their tv :whistle:

Interview itself took maybe 15 minutes. I was asked for my green card, passport, '09 tax return. Funny part was, the officer was the same guy who interviewed us for the greencard.. I guess he figured he'd seen pretty much everything else before (apparently, my file was riddled with his notes, based on how much red ink I saw on those pages). He did ask where the hubby was, and I said the hubby was at work. I didn't see the point of using up vacation time just so he can wait in the waiting room.. I opted for name change (he had an issue with my names, and was all "Well good thing you want a name change, because..")

In any case, at the end, he handed me a sheet of paper saying both tests were passed, approval is recommended, yada yada. Should get oath taking letter in maybe a month. It wasn't bad at all.
And this time, when I left the building, there were no men lying prone on the ground with cop cars screeching to a halt in front of the building with sirens blazing :lol: I could do without that kind of excitement during USCIS related trips..

Thanks! Pretty excited.. I'm back to attempting to memorize the answers.. I just hope I can remember the new names that resulted from elections this Nov :P

I was flummoxed by the list of documents that I'm supposed to bring, though! All this time, I thought I would only need my GC, passport.. the usual stuff. Didn't expect to need all the originals of pretty much everything I sent with the application. Since we'd just moved, I had to dig high and low for the original papers, which were still in boxes! :) All is good now, though. *study study*

Beyond thrilled. My case was updated too!
Your case has been transferred to a local office and an interview will be scheduled. You will be sent a notice advising you of the date and time of your interview.

Maybe there aren't a whole lot of N400 applications in OH, and that's why it's moving fairly fast? I guess we'll see what date will be in that interview letter. :dance:

It would be interesting to know if walk-ins do get bumped up on the list (not that we see for sure if you do get bumped up since it all depends on your processing center or whatever it's called). I thought of going early, but since mine's scheduled for next week, and this is Thanksgiving week (and I'm working before and after.. ugh) I figured I'll just stick to the schedule. My letter said 10am, but I plan to be there by 8.. maybe I'll get a free day to explore the city that's #7 on the most dangerous US cities list :P

Mo007, I think you still need to wait for the biometrics letter. You'll need to show it to the security people to get in, and if I'm not mistaken, you leave it with the biometrics people along with the form you fill in. Someone correct me if I'm wrong :unsure:
iyaFemalePhilippines2010-11-18 19:42:00
US Citizenship General DiscussionN-400 November 2010 Filers

Iya is correct but you will still need to get your NOA first since you do need the receipt number to check the case status.
I got my SMS and email but not NOA yet.. Hopefully I will have it soon too!


That's true! The receipt number is the identifier for the case. Once you get your NOA, you can register at the site and subscribe to notifications via email and/or SMS.

Actually the reciept number is included in the SMS/Email notification so it can be tracked as soon as it gets in to the system prior to recieving the hard copy.


Indeed. However, Mo007 doesn't get SMS/Email notifications, thus the referral to the CRIS site. Once they have the receipt number from snail mail NOA, they can get SMS/Email notifications via Cris :thumbs:

Nice!

Can you schedule for biometrics before the NOA letter then? or you have to wait for the letter?


They actually schedule you for biometrics, not the other way around. It'll be the RFE letter (it seems) after the NOA letter. LastSurvivor tried the walk-in biometrics ahead of schedule, and was successful. I didn't try the walk-in before as Cleveland is a full hour's drive if traffic is not heavy, and didn't want to risk waiting the two hour round trip drive. Whatever they schedule me for, I'll accept. Unless I hear about someone else's successful walk-in biometrics in Cleveland :whistle: then maybe I'll try it too.
So, you do have to wait for the RFE (biometrics) letter to see when you are scheduled. It's up to you if you're going on schedule, ahead of schedule, or if you'll try to call to reschedule.

Interesting. I received my NOA, and the priority date and received date both say Nov 10, but USPS says the package was delivered Nov 12. I'm not going to complain though :whistle: I take it the NOA date is date received in mail, and not the notice date?


Greetings All,
I have now officially filed my N-400 Application so am adding myself to the list! Good Luck to all November Applicants!

That makes sense. I remember reading something about adding another paper to the form to get updates.

Will just wait for NOA letter in the mail.


You can check your case status here: USCIS CRIS
I registered way back during my K-1 stage, and have been getting SMS updates since the option was made available. You do have to add each case to your portfolio manually (it doesn't get added just because you filed something with USCIS).

Thought I'd let you know.. Just got the SMS for the RFE (biometrics, yay!) Will be watching that mailbox like a hawk now. At least when I'm not at work. Heh

US Citizenship General DiscussionN-400 November 2010 Filers
Mo007, did you fill in that extra form for email notices?
I only got an email from DHS, technically, but I get sms alerts when I get them from certain senders.
