K2 Help Please

I posted before and didn't get a solid answer, Hopefully this time I will

Our paperwork is at the NVC

All paperwork submitted up to this point has my fiancees childrens names listed according to the NSO Birth certificate's.

Possible Problem: Her last name is spelled with a "z" in it, and the childrens Birth certificates (including her name on the birth certificates) have a "s" instead of a "z". (they should all technically be with a "z")

Do I continue on with the spelling thats registered with the NSO? ( I think we should) .. We need an answer so we can get their Passport applications started... so we can have the DS156 and DS157 completed.

Going to the registrars office and starting name changes will for sure hold up the process...

Am I being over cautious ?

Please advise... Thank You...

You just need to keep the children's last name spelling the way that it is used everyday. This should be the spelling any documentation you might have to include will use. This is a common subject with filipino naming conventions. The US Embassy in Manila is very well aware of the different name spellings for the same person that can be common in the Philippines.

Not really a big deal...

Philippine Dept of Foreign Affairs ( DFA) also said the same thing today... keep it the way it was written on the BC's
