During the naturalization process, you have the legal option to change your name if desired. Whether before or after your naturalization is approved, you can follow the appropriate legal procedures for a name change. It's a straightforward process that allows you to adopt a new name of your choice. Once your application is complete, you can proceed with the name change, and it won't affect your eligibility for U.S. citizenship. Before or after, you can choose a name with personal significance. Embrace this opportunity to align your identity with your journey toward U.S. citizenship and make it truly your own.
