APPROVED I-485, I-360
Had my I-485 interview yesterday after approved I-360 petition in 2024. Status today shows I-485 Green card is APPROVED. 6 whole years of turmoil with 17 Notices of Actions, 6 EADs, multiple Prima Facies and a whole lot of mental, physical and emotional warfare. Through this process, I stand as testimony that patience is truly a virtue and delay is definitely not denial. It still feels like a dream. I am thankful to God Almighty, family, friends, and to all the people of lawfully who strive to achieve the American dream. Though not an easy road, indeed it is possible. I urge everyone to persist in faith, live a good life, and don’t lose yourself during this process. Happy Holidays!

Can I change my name during divorce?
Hi, I got my green card last year for 10 years through VAWA. I want to change my name back to my maiden name. My name right now is FIRST NAME, LAST NAME, MARRIED NAME. I want to change it back to my FIRST NAME, LAST NAME while filing for divorce. My country passport right now only has my maiden name on it and I haven’t had any issues.
Now, my question is, if I change back to my maiden name during this divorce, will my green card still be valid and at naturalization, I just apply with my married name and click on name change on there too? or will I have to file a I-90 and get a replacement green card with the maiden name on it? basically can I just carry on using my green card with my married name until I apply for citizenship in 3 years?
