Interview Monday, found a discrepancy, please help!

[DavidLovesPheap 6]

After our long and arduous journey, we are almost there. Interview is on Monday, and my fiancee and I are going over her interview packet forms.

There is a discrepancy of the dates of her parents birthdays between her birth certificate (and parents) and her family book and parents ID cards. When I filled out form G-325A (biographic data for the I129F) and DS230-I (Biographic data in packet 3) I used the data I had available to me which were the family book and national ID cards.

It's too late to contact the Embassy or USCIS before we interview, so my only foreseeable option is to submit a new ds230 and maybe G325 when we show up, explain the situation, and hope we can work through it.

Any ideas? Experiences? Please help, my fiancee is super stressed because of this

Bring updated forms to the interview.

This is a non-issue to her interview.

Thanks for the replies so far! Anyone else who wants to pitch in or second what has already been said is much appreciated as I could use as many voices of encouragement to give my fiancee

Thanks! I've showed my fiancee the replies from A&B and baron555 and she's not convinced it's not a problem. Looking for other people or forum threads to help encourage her more.

I was 2 years out with my sons date of birth!... Just take the correct information... Chances are they wont even ask for it. I got approved

This is a really big problem, because of her signature on the DS-230.

However - it's fixable.

How? Bring new forms, and a letter of attestation about the discrepancies in the dates on her parents birthdays between her birth certificate (and parents) and her family book and parents ID cards. No one can fix the birth certificates, family book, or parents ID cards, quickly, but

a letter of attestation is useful, to explain the discrepancy.

I've reprinted form DS-230 with the correct information, and even the G325-A (although I doubt they will want that as it's a DOH form and we are dealing with the Department of State).

We've also gotten the Village and Commune leadership to sign a statement basically reading that the Family Book and National ID Cards are in error, and that the birth certificates are correct, and intend to take those with us in case there are questions. After this I am paying to get my in-laws ID Cards and Family Book re-created correctly so we don't run into this again in the future.

This should be enough, right?

with that signed letter from the chieftains, i'm a thinking yer set.

As long as you have the original birth certificate and new forms with the correct birthdate, you'll be good.

The original birth certificate is the 'master reference' the USCIS uses in any case for official birth dates. Everything else takes a back seat to the birth certificate. We are also dealing with this as my wife's full birthdate isn't in the passport, just the year.

There's enough to worry about (well... not really if you are legit) without worrying about easily fixable things like yours

Truly not a problem at this Embassy, the first step was a document check, and they went through and corrected any Eros or discrepancies off the bat. It saved a little time having a DS230 that I had corrected myself before going, but nothing else was needed. Interview was like butter too. Thanks everyone!

Congrats! Wish you guys a safe trip to USA. Can't wait to read your comments and review on the consulate.
