Misspelled last name
Hi guys,
I was going through all the paperwork that I will be sending to USCIS and I discovered that my second last name was misspelled on the I-797 form (approval notice for H-1B.) I still cannot understand how I missed that . I checked the non-immigrant worker petition that my employer submitted to USCIS (i.e. I-129 form, H-1B Data Collection form, etc.) and my last name is correctly spelled on all the forms. It appears that USCIS entered it wrong.
I notified my employer and they told me this is a common mistake with USCIS and that it is usually corrected at the time of the visa stamping. If there are any problems, I should show the petition. Since I am not planning to get the visa stamp, I am worried that this error may delay the AOS process. Preferably, I would like to solve this issue before it may become a problem.
Have any of you guys had a similar experience? Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.
