I just changed my name last week I didn’t know there is a lot of things to change and I want just to keep my previous name what should I do is there any fees to reverse your name ?
I requested to change my name on Naturalization form (I just wanted to remove the hyphenated part, go back to my maiden name while I'm still married because it's too long and hard to pronounce) and during my interview, the officer convinced me not to change it. He told me I have to go to Social Security Office, etc. And I took the oath and now I regret not changing it, because turns out I STILL have to go to SS office! He didn't tell me that. This would be a perfect time for me to change my name since I don't have much under my name, no driver's licence, no American passport, not currently working, just my bank account. He scrwd me over. Now, going to court to change my last name back to my maiden name is expensive and complicated process in NJ. I feel so sad and angry that I listened to the man. Thought he's gonna mess up my naturalization process if I don't agree with him..
I changed my name and became a citizen with a new name . After 3 month or so I regretted it and changed it back through court order, I did all the paper work myself and didn’t hire anyone , but it was expensive long and frustrating, and I still have things to do.
Hello, thanks for the great channel! I've requested a name change at the interview, they approved and put me in line for the oath. While I was waiting for the oath I regret my request and would like to keep my current name. What I need to do in order to cancel my request for a name change? Thank you!
Hi all the name change is big decision to make you really need to do your research because say you have dual citizenship and you wanna travel to your country and you need passport from that country to enter and exit with American passport with both having different names you gonna be in a lot of trouble. For me is now a very complicated thing since i changed my name the consulate doesnt really wanna help im not worried at all! i have been living in the states for 40 years and i only gone to my country 4 times.

Hello Sir. I’m currently living in the Philippines as an American Citizen. I was born and raised here and my both parents are Filipinos. I am applying for dual citizenship to avoid penalties for over staying. I submitted all documents including my birth certificate and school records and US naturalization certificate. However, since ive changed my name, they were asking for a copy DECREE CHANGE OF NAME or else I’m not eligible for dual citizenship. Unfortunately, I have not records of DECREE CHANGE OF NAME in Brooklyn Court and even to INS in Manhattan NYC. According to them. I lost my old Filipino passport which they were asking a a proof of my old name before. • My question is: where and how can I get a copy of DECREE CHANGE OF NAME in NYC or somewhere in the US so I can be a dual citizen. Godbless
I have question. Not sure if you can help me or not but I am still taking a chance. I passed my citizenship test recently, and I added a last name during the interview. Now I changed my mind and I do not want the last name to added with my name. Can I change it on the day of oath. If yes then what is the process and if no then what should I do to fix it. I know I should have think twice before adding the name but now I am not sure how to fix it. I am also worried if it will delay the process of getting the USA passport. Please help if you know the answers. Thank you.
What if I was asked to change my name at the age of 16? I kept my name as is. However, USCIS added a hyphen in between my two last names, which has been a nightmare to deal with in employment, accounts, doctor, etc. I’m now 31 years old. I lost my naturalization certificate in 2013. I want to get a replacement but I’m not sure what I will need to get it. If I mention the name issue, can the fee be waived? I would really appreciate a reply and any tips. Thank you so much!! 🙏 P.s. the only form of ID I have is my drivers license, social security card, and bills, vehicle registration, voter ID card, etc. I don’t have a passport. I have my foreign birth certificate but I’m not sure if that will help.
There was a typo on my name change form( wich I didin't notice) until 2 weeks after I took the oat( I was to excited and happy) that I didin't pay attention. I went to my local court house to get it fixed. But I was told that only USCIS can fix my problem. Is that correct or is there another way?
How do I proof the ssa Centre that the old name is me after having name change for 2 years on my naturalization certificate and passport. If my old name id expired , how should I update my info

They didnt ask me about name change at the Interview. The officer asked me my full legal name and i gave it the way it is on my current non US passport and i realized after leaving that this is how it will be on my naturalization certificate. My Green card only had a middle initial but looks like i will have a full middle name now. HAve i lost the opportunity to drop my middle name now? Is USCIS Form N-565 the only option?
