Spelling Mistake on NOA2

[bklalaw 0]

My future wife's name in english is Oksana..

Her Passport lists her name in russian letters as O-K-C-A-N-A, and then lists it again in english letters as O-X-A-N-A.

When I received my NOA1 they had it as Oksana.

I was not sure this was correct and I called USCIS after I had my NOA1 to inquire.. About a week later I recieved a letter from department of homeland security stating, "We have determined the name of the benefciary is correct, all the documents submited list the name as Oksana"..

So i forgot about it, and thought that was it.

But today i received my copy of the NOA2 approval, and it is in the name of O X S A N A, the mistaken combination of both names.. They changed the K to an X, or they put the S into the english translation.

again Passort OKCANA/ OXANA

Noa1 Oksana

Letter Homeland Oksana

But

Noa2 Oxsana

Ahh, is this going to be ok?

I called today to the Cal service center, and they said, they could change it but may cause a large delay. I asked them should i change it, and immigration officer said naaaa, just send her the letter from Homeland Security to show at interview...

Seems to me to be wierd advice. I have an NOA2 with her name OXSANA and a passport with the first name OKCAHA/ OXANA.

I know it is only one letter different, but won't her visa be in different name then her passport,, and how about Residencey Card, green card, marriage cert, etc...

What should I do, if you know..

1. Do nothing- and just forward letter

2. Change it at Cal Service Center even though they already forwarded NOA2 to it to National Service Center

3. Wait a couple days and ask about a possible change it at NSC

The only important thing now is the interview. Her letter will admit her to that. The misspelling can be cleared up when they act on her application. Just be sure she has all the right photo IDs for the interview. Misspellings are not common, but they do happen and will eventually be corrected on the important documents, e.g. visa and green card.

Easier to fix at the interview, IMO. Faster, too.

But - she'll have to be adamant and firm with the screener and the VO, telling both that the VISA NAME MUST BE OKSANA.

Good Luck !

FIRST thing after taking the oath to tell the truth tell her to tell the CO the mistake.

Be adamant that the visa name is OXANA
