Name on greencard

Not sure which subforum to put this in, so mods, if you want to move please do!

During ROC there was a typo in my application, instead of "John Matthew" as a first name, it was "Joh Matthew". I then called the USCIS and got it changed. However for the greencard it is indicated as "JohnMatthew" without the space. All of my other documents have "John Matthew" with a space. Wondering if this will be an issue traveling? Should I even bother getting a new green card? We are traveling soon to Mexico, and I am concerned they may give me trouble. I would rather not get a new card, as I will apply for citizenship soon, and do not want to pay for two fees.

 

Happy new year and thanks!

You will be fine.  I travel all the time  when my names are all smashed together without spaces

Lol. Coming from the same country, you know how we have 10 names as first name and insist on our mom's maiden name as the middle name. It was a fight with the MVC to keep my name the way it was intended.
