Wrong DOB in AP

[rpranesh]

Yesterday i received my wifes AP and found that the DOB is wrong. My lawyer says that should not be a problem and in the forms we submitted it had the corrected DOB. Do i need to get it corrected? Will it create a problem in reentry ?

------ where did your lawyer talk to INS officer???? did he talked to the service center that issued AP? I think he did not talk to the service center. FYI if the lawyer filed the AP of your wife and lawyer did a mistake in her name on form I-131 that is used for AP then it is mistake of lawyer, if lawyer filed with correct name then it is USCIS mistake and if it is USCIS mistake then they DO correct the documents or mistakes on documents.

*** regarding Typo on approval read what others say:
http://www.murthy.com/chatlogs/chat1027.html

Chat User : My name is misspelled in my H1B extension. If I apply for stamping in India, will it create any problem?

Attorney Murthy : Usually, a minor typo in the spelling, like one letter, may not create a big problem. On the other hand, if the difference in the spellings makes one wonder if it is the same person, it is likely to create a problem or delay the visa issuance. There is no harm in applying to the CIS for the issuance of a duplicate H1B approval notice by pointing out the service error and requesting a duplicate approval notice with the minor correction/s.

Question submitted by Approv:
I received the I-485 approval couple of days back. I have one problem in that. When I applied for I-485 I wrongly typed my initial. After that I sent several letters to INS to change it. But not to anyone's surprise they did not change it. Now my approval notice has the wrong initial. What do I do ? Will the local INS office change it when I go for the visa stamping or I have go through the length process with Vermont Service Center. Please advice me. Thanks

Answer from Jose_Latour:
Approv, you face a 10-15 year sentence in federal prison for fraud. Not really. IT'S A TYPO, APPROV, what kind of dictatorship do you think we're running over here! (-; You'll be fine, bud. When you go for the adjustment, take copies of all the letters that the INS has totally ignored to the adjudicating officer, he or she will groan, roll their eyes, and correct your record once and for all. CONGRATS

9. What should be done if information on a visa or approval notice is incorrect (such as birthdate or a misspelled name)?

A- What? A computer error? IMPOSSIBLE!

Okay, I admit it: INS does that rather regularly. If the mistake is clearly a typo for example, your name is "Doug" but they typed "Dog"-- it's probably not a big deal. In those cases, we notify INS via certified letter and INS sends corrected notices maybe 1 out of 10 times. If it's something more critical I recently had a client approved for permanent residency in the WRONG category (!) well, then you have to slug it out via fax and letters till the correction is made.


Thanks

Hi RPRANESH,

The country of birth of my 2nd AP and EAD is wrong. My attorney sent a letter to NSC and asked how to correct it. We are still waiting for the response. My attorney said it is safer to keep the original ones before we take any action.

My attorney said if the wrong information happened on EAD card, we do not need to worry about it much because we can show new employer the correct information and this mistake was maken by immigration. She said if the wrong information happened on AP, she would like to correct it.

I will update after my attorney gets any response from NSC.

Thx.

As you might be aware that my Wife's EAD has RFE and her AP with wrong DOB. My lawyer received the EAD RFE yesterday and told that it was becuase of the DOB and she has responded to it with Birth ceritificates and passport copies. Since we applied for her I485/EAD/AP together and since EAD and AP has her wrong DOB (typo) will this result in RFE on her I485 also. My lawyer says it does not because the birth certificates should be along with the I485 appl and not with EAD appl and so they raised RFE for her EAD.

Should i call up NCS to update the I485 appl? Any advice is appreciated.
