Yuuki and Yuki do not sound the same. To Japanese ears they might as well be the difference between Steven and Charlie.
But your second point is the more important one.

Considering he/she is not Japanese I think it is probably less OK. Since when do people all of a sudden get to give themselves names in kanji?

What "chance" is this?
The only chance I can think of is if you are changing to a Japanese citizenship. Is that what is happening?
Put it this way. You are not Japanese. You are not from Japan. Your name is not Yuki, Yuuki or Yukiko, so it really doesn't matter what kanji you choose to write it, as it isn't your name anyway.
