Names and Naturalization
Are you thinking of changing your name when you Immigrate to the United States? It may not be as simple as you think. During the final part of the naturalization process you can have the opportunity to change your name. Most people will choose to simplify or change phonetic spellings of their existing name. If you try to change your name before this, you will add time to your case and may significantly delay your successful naturalization in the United States.

You are welcome.
Good info but to all those make sure you research if you have citizenship in your country can be very complicated to the name change if you dont have original documents as you might require to have your countries passport even with US passport your country may not let you in!
AName change during naturalization adds complication and potential delay when a judge is not available as Jim mentions. Name change after naturalization seems easy. Then you will have a court order for the name change unrelated to naturalization to provide to banks, etc. Keeping the 2 processes separate seems best to me.

Well, I changed my name and from the interview date until the ceremony, It took me about a month. In my case, I didn't have to wait that long for a ceremony. But I agree with you.

It took me less than a month to change my name from the interview to the oath of allegance.
A friend of mine had her maiden name initialized as her middle name and her married name as her last name on both her green card and now her naturalization certificate.
I changed my from my maiden name to my married name but now I want keep both will that make things harder.

Hi! You can participate in Jim’s KZread live show @HackingImmigrationLawLLC & ask him any immigration questions. The next show is June 27th at 12 pm CDT.
When writing "other names used since birth" do those other names become public record for anyone to search for and find? Does the country that I'd be coming from, Australia, give the United States those legal name change documents? If so, would those become public record for anyone to see? And would it make any difference if i was born in the United States and the previous name was once on a birth certificate and social security card? I'm trying to escape from a covert narcissist by changing my name and not letting her find out the new one so she can't search for me and find me. Thank you.

The uscis officers simplified name by removing my mother’s side name of my full Brazilian name, but she did it all without a federal judge. What is the implication now by her doing on her own without a judge?

Hey My name is Marcia Martins Carvalho in all my documents like my marriage certificate, green card , drives license and others. In my citizenship interview the agent add Coelho , my middle name in my birthday certificate, and my name changed to Marcia Coelho Martins Carvalho ( Carvalho is my husband’s last name). I would like to maintain the same name that I have in all my documents. How could I do it before my naturalization ceremony? If I have my USA passport with Coelho in my middle name and my Brazilian passport without Coelho, like all my documents, I can use those 2 to go and back to Brazil? I’ll really appreciate your help. Thank you

Just to clarify...you're suggesting that a wife shouldn't take her husband's last name for ten years?

It doesn’t work like that, they’d still be able to change your name on your license during the process before naturalization. Immigration Advices are not tailored, You’ll need a consult for that
What's the best way to contact you?

@@HackingImmigrationLawLLC this is off topic aside from this video. When do you have this “immigration answer” event? And how can I join this event? My issue concerns false accusations of abuse from my immigrant spouse and I don’t know if this some sort of fraud or extortion and I like to them express what my eyes and ears witnessed from what I’ve been going through with all this.
