On getting her F1 visa stamped in her passport,my Daughter observed for the first time that her passport has the full last name and a part of her first name in line one and the balance of the first name in line 2. For eg, if her last name is Jill and first name is eve xxxxxxxxxxxxx, the passport has it as jill eve in line 1 & xxxxxxxxxxxxx in line 2 BECAUSE the space was insufficient to mention the long first name. Now, why did the Consulate have to take the 1st line as her last name & the 2nd line as her first name? The passport itself does not mention whether line1 is for last name & line 2 for the first name.
All her certificates: Birth, educational, I20 etc., have her name correctly cited.
What needs to be done now? having to follow her name as on the visa stamp, during her recent visit to India, she had to write her name on the I94 as on the visa ie., wrongly.
Her SSN, University degree certificate, EAD, I797 all have the name correctly incl the I94 form on her I797.
Will it be a problem when she goes to a consulate to have her H1B Visa stamped?
Does it require a 'name observation' by the passport office? If so, does she need to go to the office which issued her passport or, can she visit any consulate in US for it?
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
