For the green card application, do we use her name on the certificate or her married name?

Answered by attorney David Nabow Soloway
Immigration lawyer at Kennedy, Nalepa & Soloway, P.C.
In the process of applying to become a naturalized citizen, your wife may (but is not required to) have her Naturalization Certificate identify her by her married name. If she changed her name in a way other than simply through marriage, such as through a Court Order legally changing her name, then she will be required to inform the USCIS of that and to supply a copy of the court order; her new legal name will then appear on her Naturalization Certificate. Inconsistent identification of a person's name in important documents can add significant complexity to an application process. Nonetheless, regardless of whether your wife's name change makes her birth record, naturalization certificate and/or other relevant documents inconsistent, she still may be able to sponsor you to adjust status to become a Lawful Permanent Resident (to get a "Green Card"). It would be wise for you and your wife 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 application process.

Can I apply for citizenship if I am married for 10 years but have filling as single on my tax return because my husband had student loan?

Answered by attorney David Nabow Soloway
Immigration lawyer at Kennedy, Nalepa & Soloway, P.C.
It is impermissible and unlawful to intentionally state false information in a tax return. If a tax professional advises you that some peculiarity in the tax law permitted you to file as single, then your tax filings may not stand in the way of naturalization eligibility. If a tax professional advises you that you were not permitted to file as single, then you may need to file amended tax returns (and pay any additional amounts that may be due) and be prepared to explain, if applicable, how you misunderstood the legal requirement regarding your tax returns, in order to show that you do not "lack good moral character" and to be eligible for naturalization. There really is no substitute, however, for you to consult with an immigration attorney who, after learning all of the relevant information, could advise about eligibility and about strategy for naturalization, and who then could offer legal representation in the often complex application process.

Answered by attorney David Nabow Soloway
Immigration lawyer at Kennedy, Nalepa & Soloway, P.C.
Assuming you are a U.S. citizen, generally the options include traveling to Jordan and then pursuing consular processing in the Immediate Relative visa category, or pursuing a K-1 fianc? visa to enable him to enter the U.S. for the purpose of becoming married within the required time and then pursuing the adjustment of status application process. It would be wise for you and your fianc? to consult with an immigration attorney who, after learning all of the relevant details about you and him, would be able to advise about eligibilities, options and strategies, and offer legal representation in the often complex application process.
