I am a legal resident and stayed in the Us for a year. I filed for a re entry permit since I would be out of the Us for some time and was approved for 2years.
MY DILEMA:
I got married and my husband lives in Germany. I live here with him now but I still want to maintain my LPR status. My re entry permit expires in 2018 and I am not sure if my renewal would be approved since I have not been to the Us since I left.
There is also an issue of name change. I have not changed my passport to bear my married name since it would expire in early 2019. Is it advisable to re new the re entry permit with my old name or new name?
If my new name ie married name is the advisable option, how do I go about it? What forms do I have to fill? and what agencies would I have to inform so the changes reflect ( social security, DHS etc)
Is it also possibile to renew the re entry permit before hand although the old one has not expired?
please help as I am really in a dilemma.
