During filling DS-260 at NVC stage, there is column "Mother surnames at Birth" in Family Section. Should we fill Mother's maiden surname in this column along with first name and middle name at her birth in "Given name" column or is it fine to put current name as present in Passport, which is now her legal name? We have filled current name as per passport for mother in the I130A form (i130 petition is already approved) in the Mother's maiden name column in Parent's Section. 

 

Kindly guide, whether we can put same current name as mentioned in I130A and as per passport in this DS-260 "Mother surnames at Birth" column to avoid discrepancy between I130A and DS-260 forms or will there be any issue during Consular visa processing interview if we put current legal mother's name as mentioned in passport in "Mother surnames at Birth" column in DS-260 form Family Section?

What was her surname on the day she was born? That's what you put.

Thanks. In I130a, we have put mother's current name as per passport in maiden name column. Difference in name between I130A and DS-260 will not create any issue during NVC review processing?

As long as the names are correct for what they are asking then that's fine. But are her surname at birth and her maiden name not the same??

Surname at birth and maiden names are same. But somehow we put current name as per passport in I130a form as maiden name.

OK, so that's wrong - you don't want to make it worse by making a mistake on the DS-260 as well! You need to make sure you put the right name on it.

Yes. That makes sense. But just worried whether NVC will send back the Case to USCIS due to difference in mother's name in I130A and DS 260.

No worries.  It's not an issue.
