I have recently joined the army and am a green card holder and right now am filling out the naturalization form and there is a name change option. my name is not very US friendly (..... very not US friendly ) and I don't want it to effect my military career (or social life in the states). my question is: is it a good idea to change my name at this stage. and what happen to my old paperwork from my original country since it cant be changed to the new name( Examples include my college degree and passport). basicly how does it work to have two names (one in the US paperwork and another in the other countries paperwork), is there some sort of bridge between the two names after its changed. for example lets say I wanna apply for masters degree or I want to become an officer(witch requires college degree) and my college degree reads my original name. can they still recognize its the same person. thank you in advance

You will have to always carry the proof of your name change such as court order, which may happen during naturalization process. You will have to specify your old name at many places.Immihelp Support
