Hey everybody, i am in the middle of writing out my AOS package and have my two passport photos of myself that i am using for the I-485 form. I wrote my name on the back of both photos as per visa journey instructions, however i then downloaded the uscis instructions to make sure everything was correct and it says to write lightly in pencil or felt pen, i wrote in black biro ink. What shall i do... is this going to be a major issue? I'm so frustrated now i thought the passport pictures would be the least of my worries!

IMHO you're reading way too much into this. As the previous poster said...as long as the photo isn't marred or blurred by the ink it should be fine.
