Hi,
My wife's biographic page says in the "Given Name" Navneet Kaur and "Surname" filed is empty.
I read that for american visa there has to be something in the Surname field on the first page or they use Given name as Surname and write FNU in the field of Given name.
However, she did add my name in her passport to the second page and in that page her Surname was changed to Sahota. Now will she be able to avoid FNU (first name unkown) on her visa. Again on the biographic page "Given Name" says Navneet Kaur, Surname field above that is empty but on the second page her Surname has been changed to Sahota.
Thank you
sunny

this is the response that i got back when i emailed one passport office in India:

Thank you for your inquiry.

If the passport has an observation made with surname and given name printed - then the visa will be printed in that way .She will not have FNU on the surname column.

So now that they changed my wife's surname on the second page is that the "observation made".

Yes if an observation is made, she should be fine. However, make sure that you tell the embassy people on the interview date that this observation has been made.
