Hi Everyone,

When I sent the I-130 for my wife (she didn't have a passport then) I translated her name from her native language "Maisa" but then when she went to get her passport they translated her name into English as "Maissa"

All the documents' translations that I've sent contains the first spelling -different from passport- (Birth, Marriage, civil records cirtificates)

Now after I found out the name spelling on her passport, I sent the I-129F with the new spelling (again Birth, Marriage, Civil records etc.) with the new spelling (per her passport) Note that the name in the native language is and was always the same... just a translation issue.

I'm now worried that they're not going to like the two different spellings on the 130 and 129F

I called the USCIS line and the person said if it's errounous, he could put a service request to correct it and they would send me a letter on the result, but if it's a change then I need to send everything again with the new spelling... As yo can tell, this is very confusing to explain on paper :-) so what do you think I should do??? Just trying to avoid any unnecessary delays.

Thanks and good luck to all.
