  • Green Card / Visa question

    Hi,

    I am originally from Brazil and just got married to my husband (an American) last weekend. We are planning a trip to Brazil in October. I would like to get my green card and change my name to take my husband's last name. I already have my flight tickets to Brazil though and didn't know if I should wait to apply for a green card and change my name until after we return since my flight tickets and passport show my maiden name.

    I have lived in the US for several years and my Visa expires in January of 2011. Please let me know if I can apply for a green card and change my name legally without changing my passport until after I return to the US from Brazil in October.

    Thank you.

    It would be best to apply for name change and green card after you return from your trip.

      Thank you very much for your quick reply. Could you tell me on average how long it takes for the paperwork to get a green card? Thanks again for your help.
