cor - holy NOTFICIATIONS batman ! ... and do they mean 'they were received'

I will thanck thems for there emayl and hope that the name on my veeser is speled crectly

It wasn't when I came in on K1 and the SS refused me a number !

An old English surname consisting of 4 easy letters - and they couldn't spell it...

When I get that 10 year green card with my name spelled correctly, i will duct tape it to my body and only take it off for baths - with the door locked.

Seriously, I know they are busy, but if a job is worth doing, it's worth hiring someone who is careful and can write English.

dios nos ayudará!

They probably don't know how to use spellcheck either.

For immigrant visas (not K1's however), by law, the approved immigrant visa application becomes the visa. So make sure you spell it right on the DS-230, because that will become the name on the visa.

INA 222(e): "The application for an immigrant visa, when visaed by the consular officer, shall become the immigrant visa."

On my K1, I think they tried to figure the name from the white entry card ? anyway all the forms were ok so it was a mistake at POE or transcribing the officer's record.

Luckily MDYoung was a member at that time and found a SS regulation which said if only 1 letter was spelled wrongly then they had to issue a SS number - I went back with that info and they did it.

If they hadn't I would have been 2 months without a US driver's license, bank account etc

VJ saved me..

Rumour has it that some folk were nasty to MDYoung and he doesn't post any more - that is a huge pity so I pass this on in case someone else is 1 letter out

It speaks to something when the government has to excuse its own mistakes in advance - it shows they are NOT rare.

My pal has been in the US 12 years and still shudders when he hears INS - it took him many months of heartache to get his file right and he renewed his 10 year greencard with great trepidation.

He refuses nationality though and says he is British ! - think I will take it as away out of the uscis world
