Visa Spelling Error

[Jaminzel 0]

Hi VJ People,

Hey, can you guys help us out? My fiance got her visa in the mail today, "Glory to GOD!" and she noticed that they had inverted two letters in my name, not hers. She also read on the visa where it said,"If the personal data is wrong you need to go back to the embassy for corrections" To do this would be a huge inconvenience on us. I just can't imagine them rejecting her at the POE over something as trivial as this. The delivery man and myself think that they would be mainly concerned with her info and not mine. Is there anyone out there who can shed some light on this for us? You have always been there for us VJ.

Thanks again,

Ben

Obviously it would be better to have it correct. Bigger inconvenience would be to get turned around at the POE.

i had the same situation as you are before. it wasnt the spelling but they added more name into my hubby's (the petitioner) full name... i believe that's under the "intonation"... e.g: my hubby's name is Ron M Fitz, but in the intonation it stated that his name is RON M. FITZ RON (doubled the name)... i panicked of course and raised this up to the forum and to ray bacon (the one who helped us arrange our papers) and he said that for as long as my name (the beneficiary) is correct then it should be fine... and it did... though i am not positive for the spelling "issue"... i guess its best to call the embassy and hopefully they will say that its ok... since the rest of the packet is in your correct name, and hoping the poe will just understand the "clerical error per se" good luck

God bless!!!

There was also an error of one letter in my husband's address under the Annotation.I went back to the US Embassy and reported the error.I was told that since it's just in Annotation then it is just a minor error.They didn't correct it and was told that what is important is the information about me is correct.They told me that the Immigration Officer at my POE will be able to verify it in their system and in the information contained in the brown packet.It was not an issue at my POE.

i guess it wouldnt hurt to call the embassy to be sure but basing on our experienced, it wasnt a big deal for them... good luck!

Hi Jose Rizal,

Yea, I agree, the consequences wouldn't be worth it.

Hi Haole,

We had better play it safe.

Hi RonMay,

Thanks for that reply, you have comforted me and more importantly my fianc'e with your experience in this. This whole process has been an emotional roller coaster ride for us Ha Ha.

Thanks again,
