Need some advice

Published

Hi guyz! newbie here, Im so glad that a friend of mine told me about this site. Its very informative. I have some questions to ask, hopefully you can help me out. Here's my situation, Im now preparing all the necessary requirements for the application of RN licensure exam (Ca.), but then all my documents are still under my maiden name (TOR, license from Phil). I got married last feb and was able to adjust my status and received my greencard recently under my married name. To prevent confusions on my docs and application Im planning to apply under my maiden name, so my question is i have my SSN now under my married name, do I need to put my SSN on my application or just leave in blank since Im using my maiden name and also Im doing my live scan fingerprinting using on Friday, do I need also to write down my SSN number? Thanks... Hope you can enlighten me.

You just need to submit a copy of the marriage license when you apply, that is all that you will need to do.

If your visa is in the married name, then your license has to have that as well. Or you will not be able to work. Everything must match what is on the green card.

Since you are now in the US and have the green card, and are married, submit your application with the married name and a copy of the marriage license. Your SSN# is also under the married name, I would most definitely just use that or it will take you much more time trying to get things changed over.

If you do not have a SSN# on your application, they will not issue a license to you.

If you would have applied before you got the green card, then you could have done it all with the maiden name, but now with everything being issued, just get it all done with the married name to save any problems later on.

Best of luck to you.
