What do I do if I want to become a US citizen but I still have my husband’s last name whom I’ve been separated for 10 years already?

Answered by attorney David Nabow Soloway
Immigration lawyer at Kennedy, Nalepa & Soloway, P.C.
Generally, a U.S. citizen who otherwise is eligible for naturalization, can have her legal name restored to her as part of the naturalization process, and this is true regardless of whether she has not obtained a divorce from a husband with whom she is separated. Alternatively, a Permanent Resident may apply for a legal name change (in Georgia, that is done through an action filed in the Superior Court where the person resides). There is no additional fee for restoring an applicant's original name (as shown on a birth record) in the naturalization application process, although for that the naturalization ceremony must take place in a court rather than at the USCIS naturalization auditorium. That contrasts with costs for filing fees and for placing an announcement in the newspaper when legally changing one's name through a Superior Court in Georgia. It would be wise for you to consult with an immigration attorney who, after learning all of the relevant information, could advise about eligibilities, options and strategies to attain your goals, and who then could offer legal representation in the often complex naturalization application process.

After being legally divorced on paper, should he notify the home office about his divorce before I file for him?

Answered by attorney David Nabow Soloway
Immigration lawyer at Kennedy, Nalepa & Soloway, P.C.
Although not entirely clear from your question, I presume that you are a U.S. citizen who wishes to sponsor your husband for immigration benefits in the U.S., and your husband currently is in Europe, where he became divorced from his first wife. If that is accurate, you and your husband may apply for consular processing for him to come to the U.S. and then you may petition for him to adjust status to become a Lawful Permanent Resident (to get a "Green Card"). Part of those steps will include providing documentary evidence that his previous marriage was lawfully terminated through divorce. It would be wise for you and your husband to work with an immigration attorney for this process. Some immigration law firms, including mine, offer legal services on a "flat fee" basis so that a client will know the total expense from the very beginning, and a few immigration law firms, including mine, offer an initial consultation free of charge.

What will be the right priority date for my husband's visa petition?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney William D. Fong (Unclaimed Profile)
Immigration lawyer at Fong Ilagan
The first priority date is applicable, and there is no need to re-file. But factually please note that he has moved to a different preference classification. He was initially an FB-2B (probably), then when his mother naturalized he was an FB-1, then when you married, he became and FB-3. That is the priority date you need to check. You may be able to get your permanent residence with him, but it is unlikely, depending on whether or not you are grandfathered for section 245(i). You can call me for details. Thank you.
