Thanks for the info. Oh no, whoops :-) I'm jumping the gun on saying my wife. Aug!!! :-) But I'm doing all the research I can now ahead of time between Ontario, immigrations, etc.

So then, on the I-130 and bio forms, would she use my last name as the officer said? I'm not sure what you exactly said no to.

What would the normal process be once we had a marriage certificate? I'd assume first, in Ontario, shed update he, drivers license, OHIP(health) card, SS card... your SIN? credit cards, banks, etc etc...

Then once shes approved for US, the UCIS will see it as my last name? How did you fill out your last name on your I-130? As your maiden name or married name...?

thx.



I had to have my marriage certificate, as well as a certified copy of the licence to change to my married name in the Niagara region of Ontario. Not sure if it's the same any where else.

I used my married name on my forms

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresCan I enter the US once I begin the CR-1 process?
I haven't had any problems crossing the border to visit my husband. I just make sure I have proof of my ties to Canada in case they ask. I have never been asked to show proof, have been asked verbally.

So if you have proof you intend to return to Canada , you shouldn't have any problems

I added my husband to my accounts without a social. I had to fill out a form called a W-8 ben and fax them a copy of my husbands id. It was too easy and now what was mine is ours... But the only thing is I have USAA. They have a selective membership primarly for military. But it never hurts to try. yes.gif



I had to fill that out to be added to my husbands account

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresI-130 Not forwarded to NVC - Please Help!
How many notices have you received from USCIS? First one is just saying they received your petitions and file number. Second one is stating approval unless you get an RFE.

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresHow do you know if your case has been assigned?
We got told the second time my husband called. I think it all depends on who answers the phone, some are more helpful than others.

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresNOA question
QUOTE (Riggs @ May 26 2009, 09:55 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
Hi all,

When they send your NOA-1, is it sent from the USCIS office that is processing your visa?
or are all the NOA-1 letters sent from the same location? because it has he address of the uscis center and phone to contact, so I am asuming that is the center that is processing the petition.

Thank all

Steve



Your NOA1 will say which center is going to be processing your petition
