passport and bc have different places of birth

[BabyBlueSusie 1]

my fiance's interview is on the 12th, and his birth certificate and passport have two different cities of birth...he was born in tropoje, albania but his passport says he was born in tirana, albania.

i am wondering if this will be a possible problem for the interview, and what i can do to limit the negative effects.

on all of the forms i wrote that he was born in tirana, because that i was going by what his passport said.

basically, when he got his passport, he got it in tirana, and they (mistakenly) put tirana as his place of birth. he told me that he doesnt think it will be a problem, and that in albania they make these sorts of mistakes all the time.

I don't know. I don't believe Tropoja falls into the province of Tirana. If it did I don't think it would be a problem. Why did he not have it corrected or else go and ask where the passport was issued and have a new one issued. I would be a little nervous. They might make him correct it or they may not notice or they might not care? I would have him go and get a new one reissued. I think it might take 2 weeks? You can never be too sure with the Albos.

i dont know why he never got it fixed, i think he got it right before he went to italy...he lived there for so long that i guess it never mattered...i cant really say...we dont have time now to get a new one, so i guess we will have to hope for the best...tropoje is not in the province of tirana...i forget which one it is, but i know its not tirana...and yes, you never do know with the albos lol

I have a similar problem my husband was born in Yugoslavia and listed ans Yugoslavian, then received his DL from the Rep. of Serbia e Montenegro, listed as Yugoslavian/Montenegrin, and now his passport and international DL say he Yugoslavian/Montenegrin and a Citizen of Montenegro. All of the authorities that I have contacted so far say that the US Consulate in those areas is well aware of situations like this and do not question them very often. I hope that they are correct, but please keep me posted if you find out specifics.
