Hi all,
Here is my situation:
My passport used to have my name as:
Surname: A---
Given name: P---
The correct name should be (since this is how I use it in the US now and it applies to all my docs here - GC, DL, school records, everywhere).
Surname: P---
Given name: A---
I got this corrected in the Indian passport recently through an "Observation" on Page 3 which states:
The name of the passport holder appearing on Page 1 has been corrected to read as:
Surname: P---
Given name: A---
With this correction my passport, GC and DL etc. all now have the same and correct name.
Since this is not a "name change" as such but simply a re-alignment of the last and first names (often a source of confusion from India), I hope this is sufficient and I don't have to go through a name change to get a new passport book issued. Will this create any problems at the port of entry in US? Anyone with any comments? Any problems anticipated with the N400 at the time of interview?
Any comments would be greatly appreciated.
