moddy Posted January 21, 2012 Report Share Posted January 21, 2012 My wife passport has only Given Name printed and her Surname is blank and her H4 visa had FNU on her given name and surname has her full name. She has two names but they have been printed as the Given Name in her passport its like that in her birth certificate, marriage certificate etc so she doesnt really have a last name, i am in a situation where we recently got married and the priority dates are current and we have to apply for I 485 and our lawyers have mentioned that they will match her application to match her passort name what that means is her complete name would be mentioned in the first name (given name ) field and in her last name they would print "LNU" last name unknown. My concern is her EAD and GC will have LNU printed will that cause problems in general in her I-485, EAD/AP application...? 2. when she travels at port of entry 3. when she applies for social security. Please let me know. Thanks Link to comment
Belle Posted January 22, 2012 Report Share Posted January 22, 2012 How about she takes on your last name, since you are married? Is not it kind of obvious? Link to comment
moddy Posted January 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2012 Thanks for the reply. You mean add my last name on her application forms even though her passport doesn't have my last name yet ? Link to comment
Belle Posted January 23, 2012 Report Share Posted January 23, 2012 Of course. She should apply for a new passport, obviously, but she may start using your last name right away. She will need her old passport and a marriage certificate for fingerprinting if the new passport is not received yet. Link to comment
