I am planning to file a petition for my mother who resides in my native country. I just realized however that her first name is spelt one way on my birth certificate and another way in all her other identification documents including passport. Her name is common in my local language and is often spelt either way. I really need your help to figure out what the best course of action is? Should I get a new birth certificate with her name spelt correctly? I would need to go back to my native country to get that done though and it will likely take way too long. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.
 
Not a problem. Let her just swear a court affidavit testifying she is the same person. I have the same issue
 
Need help, badly.
Hi! So this is the situation, my mom is now a US citizen and she said that she will petition me. The case is that we have different surname, because she got married when i was 6 years old but she didn't change my surname. So my surname is her maiden name and also in my birth certiicate my mom's surname is still her surname when she's still single (which is my surname). Is it still possible for her to petition me? Can someone help because i need to know, because my mom won't tell me a single thing about the petition process.
