Basically, my wife was born after the Vietnam war. There's no more North Vietnam and South Vietnam as 2 countries on the map after 1975. The region that she was born was on South Vietnam, no one in her family was born or live in Northern Vietnam.

When I filed the application for my wife, I put her Country of Birth as Vietnam. To our surprise, when the EAD arrived, they printed it "Country of Birth: North Vietnam". I didn't know how they came up with North Vietnam as a country. :whistle:

I'm not sure if it's that big of a deal or if we should send them a letter to correct that. My wife really doesn't want to be associated with North Vietnam on the rest of her documents later on.

I've been joking with her: "Uncle Sam thinks you are communist spy from the north. If you are, tell me now. We can fix this". :rofl: That makes her mad every time.:rofl:

all too common these days.. someone may think its funny entering that in the computer. will have no impact. You can make an infopass appointment and talk to them about the issue. But it has no impact on anything when it comes to employment.
