I have received my Affidavit of Single status from Chinese consulate in New York. I first went to court house and got divorce decree took that to Secretary of State and they stapled the 2 together and put a seal put on to verify notary from court house. Then I sent all those papers in with a copy of my passport to Chinese Consulate in New York and received back the Secretary of State paper with the Affidavit stapled together like I sent it and the Chinese seal on back of Secretary of State paper perfect so I thought. So I scanned a copy of this to my future wife. She took it to the marriage place and they said yes that's right. on leaving they said to make sure the name on the divorce paper matches letter for letter. I didn't send her copy of divorce decree because didn't think it was needed since I got back the Single status with Chinese seal on it. So after looking at my divorce decree I see that is has my full first name, middle initial , last name..... But on my Affidavit of Single status I filled it out with my full name like on passport, it has my full middle name. and when I signed it just first and last name. This was not a problem with Chinese Consulate in New York and it never came up. So the question is do I need to even present the divorce decree since I have the notarization single status from Chinese government and if so will the difference between one having middle initial and one full middle name going to present a problem.
