We had our AOS interview on yesterday, which was a success by the way... :dance::dance::dance:

But the officers can not pronounce the names and if you don't pay attention you will miss your appointment. The other issue the officer had was with the way the name is written....

Family (last) name middle name first name

Has anyone else experience this???
