I just noticed, FNU is apparently my wife's first name,and I looked back at the I-130 submitted and it clearly states her first name and last name and middle name as N/A as she doesn't have one. Now am at NVC stages,do I need to correct this now or later after she arrives?

She has not changed her last name after marriage yet,figured we would wait till she gets here,should I just ignore this for now?

Just to update on this issue:

This "error" which is technically not an error happens at NVC stage. If your biographic page on passport has a section for surname and if its blank,NVC is required to put FNU on the application. If you want it changed,you have to obtain a new passport that clearly indicates in case of Indian passports:Given name and Surname. So I looked up my wife's Indian passport issued in 2006 and turns out she has her surname blank and her "Given" name as her complete name. It seems an issue for Indian passports,maybe filled incorrectly at time of application or by the passport office. At this time,I do not want to deal with it and moving forward with NVC with current name on file.

Hope this will help someone who's in the same boat as me.
