Author Renew Certification card
Raymond

2004-02-26, 5:24 pm

A friend of mine, he is from Japan and he wants to get A+ Certify but he is
not yet a U.S citizen. He asks me if he got certified,but then he will
change his name in 2 years because he wants to be a U.S citizen. Can he
renew his certification card with a fee but under new name? Is this
possible or he has to retake the A+ again? Anyone had certified and changed
their name on the new certification card?

Thank You.

I dont understand, why do you need to change your name to become a citizen?

It doesn't say that he has to change his name...it may be his desire
to change his name to Americanize it, or he may be under a mistaken
(?) idea that it is required.

Quite a few Asians change there names when they become citizens, so they fit in
better because a lot of Americans can not pronounce there names. I have a few
close chinese friends and all have either changed there names or shortened them
up for this reason.

One of my friends is from Hong Kong and his name is Bill William, so I asked him
one day if in fact he had changed it and why. I also asked him how come "Bill
William" and he stated he liked the play on names.

To be a U.S citizen is like an A+ certified tech. You must pass a written
and oral exam about American history. And yes, there is a heavy fee just
like the A+, 310 bucks. Upon taking the exams, you have a choice to keep
your native country name or change your name into an Ameican name. And that
Japanese guy I talked about just got here for only 3 years. He won't be
able to take that u.s citizen exams until his 5th years in the united
states. However, he wants to be A+ certified now, and receive the
certification card, but he wonders if he can change his card with a new name
later. Not sure if comptia will make him take the test again after changing
his name.

Hi

My question is to the ladies out there who are A + certified and
consequently got married and changed there names, Did you have any issues
with this. I would think that Comptia would have some provision for this.

My thoughts

Your friend could ask comptia and find out.... I wouldn't think it
would be that much of a problem.

Here's what it says on the FAQ at comptia :

What is the procedure if I have changed my name and would like a new
certificate to reflect this change?
a.. Once you have logged into your record, click on New Incident . You
will be required to complete a new incident advising CompTIA that you are in
need of a new certificate and ID card due to a name change. CompTIA will
require legal documentation of your name changes (i.e. marriage license,
divorce decree, etc...) faxed (xxx-xxxx-xxxxx) to the attention of our
fulfillment department, along with the reprint application form. There is a
$15.00 fee for each new certificate requested.

Hope this clears it up!

JM
