Hi.
I am petitioning for my mother to move to the US. I am a US citizen.
Our passports' last names used to match but when my mom relocated from Kazakhstan to Russia, her transliterated last name in her passport slightly changed (they changed "y" to "i") . I have my birth certificate translated for the application with our last names matching (like it used to). Would there be a problem submitting evidence with our last names spelled slightly different? And would I need to get my birth certificate translated so that her last name on it would match her passport name?
I know it may sound a bit confusing but I just wanted to do the right thing. Thank you!
