Hello All,

I am filling out the I-751 for my spouse and on Part 4 of the I-751 on page 2 it asks for the Family Name of "the spouse or parent through whom you gained your conditional residence."

Should I enter in my maiden or married name?

Thanks!

Marisol

Both.

I don't know if this is just an old fashioned thing or if anyone else still uses it, but I used the convention: Marisol MarriedName(nee MaidenName) when it was called for.

Thanks for answering, guys! FYI...I called the UCIS and they said to use what I am currently using as my legal name (which is my married name).

Thanks again!

How have people organized their materials? In the good 'ol folders with the ACCO fasteners, or would one of those report cover thingies with the slide that holds the papers on the side suffice?

Thanks again for all your help!!!

You called the misInfo line? It is not staffed by USCIS personnel but by 3rd party contract workers who know little or nothing of USCIS rules and regulations. They may be okay to change an address, but never rely on any information they give regarding completing or submitting forms which will forever change your life.

I did the exact same thing whenever asked that question by the CIS. Regardless of whether it was from the I-129F and all the petitions following it, it was always First, Current Last, (nee birth surname).

I felt it was better to cover the base then to leave an opening for a problem to enter.

Thanks, you guys are fabulous. The famous Rete replied to my post. I feel honored. What does the nee thing mean?

"nee" is a French word for "born". We use it in English. So it translates like First Name, Middle Name, Married Name, "born as" Maiden Name.
