Any other name(s) used question and upcoming interview

[madhuri_dhar]

I have my interview coming up soon. In my N-400 application, I had filled my 'married' name (from my marriage certificate which was issued in India) under the section 'Any other name used?' which is different from my maiden name.

I haven't used my married name anywhere else other than on my marriage certificate. (You know how in India they automatically print your last name to be the same as your husband's last name on the marriage certificate). Please note that I am not applying for citizenship under marriage based category, so I assume I will not be required to produce this document. But I still thought that since marriage certificate is an important document, I should mention my married name in 'any other name used?' and I did.

Will it cause any probelm whatsoever. I don't plan to go for a name change.

You did it right. I don't think there will be any problem whatsoever. Just carry your marriage certificate with you even though it is extremely unlikely that you will be asked to show that to the interview officer.
