First name last letter correction in tax transcript

I just got my tax account transcripts and for 2007 and 2006 my name appears slightly different
example correct jane Smith and it appears on the transcript as jano smith.

I think there was a typo in one of my W2s from my employer but I never paid attention to it.

is this going to be a problem when i show my tax transcript to the IO that the name appears with a typo for these 2 years?

is it possible to correct it?

please let me know if I should worry about it

thanks
 
Your name spelling really isn't important. That is why you have an SSN. Don't bother with it.

Glad to see you got a transcript of your return (which is free). Some mistakenly ask for a copy of their return, which is usually quite expensive, and unnecessary for immigration purposes.
 
Thanks Nelsona you're so helpful.

My only concern is that since there is a typo in the first name do you have to list as a an additional name used eventhough was just a typo or just explain to the IO that this was a typo.

is it possible to call IRS and have them correct the typo?
will they do it or do I have to file an ammendment for that year just to correct the name?
