I-797 error- Misspelled Petitioner Name
My H1 visa was approved but the I-797 approval notice has an error-- they dropped the last alphabet of my company's name on the I797 and I94 card.
Will this cause any issues when I try to get my visa stamped? My I-129 petition has the right information and the error was on the part of USCIS. My lawyer says that there is very little chance that the Service Centre will respond and actually re-issue a new approval notice with the correct petitioner name. My lawyer says I should take the risk and explain to the visa officers my case as this is a trivial issue and only the last alphabet has been missed.
I am not sure I want to take the risk. Has anybody faced such an issue? Has anybody had success in getting their I-797 re-issued. Please help
