hello all,

One of my friend has a issue with her name on the H1. Her full name on the passport does not match the name on the h1..(some small differnce)..hence the DMV has denied her a driving licence,,, Is there a way to get this corrected?? if so what is the procedure? and also can she get it done OR the employer must do it...

thanks any response is appreciated.

If the name is wrong on the passport you friend need to change it. If on the H1B the employer needs to hange it.

thanks for the response dynobuoy..

the name is wrong on the H1 visa.. can my friend apply for the name change by herself?? if so is there any particular form she needs to fill...her employer is not very co-operative so she would like to do it on her own..

your response is appreciated..
thanks

The best possible way I can think of is that your friend need to call the NCS and schedule an appointment. Take all documentss in original and they might make the correction and give you back the application in a day (sometimes right there). Usually this is done if the change is small and obvious.

Wish your friend the best of luck
