Marriage Certificate signature not matching passport signature

[Adrian Druzdz 0]

Hello everyone, 

 

Myself and my wife are in the process of filling out the I-130 form and gathering all of the evidence we required. We've noticed that when we got married back in 2023 my signature (the beneficiary) is not matching with my passport. We're not sure if this will cause a problem or if we should just leave it and hope that it won't cause any issues/delays with our application. 

 

We've been in contact with the marriage office where they issued the marriage certificate and they said that they would need to re-issue the certificate if I wish to change the signatures. But that could create another problem as they can't put the original date on the new certificate but the date that the new certificate is issued. Therefore, on paper it will show that we only just got married but in reality its been 1.5 years since our marriage.

 

Does anyone have any advice or have encountered such a problem? Is it better to leave how the signatures are now or would it better to get a new marriage certificate with a new date?  

 

Thanks in advance!

I've basically started using a new signature since my passport has been issued. I've attached a picture for everyones reference.

If asked, that's your explanation.  You changed your signature. No big deal.  They do look like the same person's handwriting anyway.
