We had our AOS interview on yesterday, which was a success by the way... kicking.gif kicking.gif kicking.gif

But the officers can not pronounce the names and if you don't pay attention you will miss your appointment. The other issue the officer had was with the way the name is written....

Family (last) name middle name first name

Has anyone else experience this???

Congrats on your interview!

Re always used to write his name that way and is why we had a problem with his passport on the first interview. Now he is sure to write it in the "American" way.

Oh do I understand.... yes.gif I keep having to remind my hubby the same thing. They just need extra time to get use to the American way.
