We got approved on March 6th. I called the NVC just now to get the MNL# and when she asked my fiance's birthdate I gave it to her and she said that is incorrect!!!! I repeated it and again she insisted it was incorrect. I checked my calender on my phone and it was correct. I quickly grabbed a copy of the I-129F and I mistakenly put the wrong year :/. I gave it as it was on the I-129F and she said that is correct. I got the MNL#.

My question is what do we do about the wrong birth date? Will this cause a problem? Can it be changed?

Chinook and I had I-129F issues too. However, we didn't know it until the consular officer pointed it out at Chinook's Embassy interview. As a result, I had to send Chinook a new I-129F and she submitted it to the Embassy. No problems after that.

Here's my suggestion: Fill out a new I-129F, date it with today's date, sign it, send it to your fiancée, have her take it with her to her interview where she can submit it to the pre-screener.

They are incredibly careless. I had the same issue. We emailed the correct document showing the ACTUAL date and they fixed it. They said a week, but I called & made a "stink" about them screwing up, so that they had it corrected within 24 hours.

Was the lady on the phone kind of bit chy? When I called the lady asked for my fiances bday, I'm horrible with dates but I know she was born on 4th of july just didn't not year so I was like hold on let me check. She gave me this kind of what the heck you don't know. Why would I know the year, who goes around saying what year they were born in? I don't know the year anyone was born in except for me... They could definitely work on their phone skills but it's the government what can you expect. When is your interview?
