Birth Certificate/Philippines

[ThomKimQC 14]

Hello All visajourney friends. My fiancee Kim received a copy of her Birth certificate today and she noticed that her father name is spelled different than the name she put on the G325a Biographic information. Her mom always spelled her father's name "Hebir", when she looked on the Birth certificate it shows "Hevir". Will this be a problem for her when packet 3 is sent to Manila? My fiancee already has a passport issued to her and now she is nervous that the mispelling of her father's name will cause issues there. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you

Thomas

If the spelling on the birth cert is correct it will be ok and can be changed on the 325 don't worry spelling mistakes happen all the time.

Thank you for your help...much appreciated. She was so worried that would be a problem over there if the spelling of the name was wrong.

I have the same problem. The dad's name is spelled incorrectly as well. (Since I'm a sissy and hired and Attourney) I brought this to the Attourneys attention. She said: don't worry, it is a common occurance. I did supply my Attourney with a Official Letter from the Philipphine Goverment but she said that she would hold onto it but don't feel it is needed. As the above post read: As long as the 325 for the beneficiary is correct it will be fine. Your a earlier filer than me so you will know before me if its a problem. Good luck.. You don't have long to go.

Thanks sis fingers crossed all the way with a lot of prayers...on my 325 form I put Hevir which is not what shows on my BC...my BC has my dad name spelled Hibir and I hope it will not be a problem since I saw my BC after my fiancee already sent 325 form for K1 visa. I just hope now that when packet 3 is sent and I go to Embassy it will not be a problem.

To make sure let ur fiancee go to a lawyer and explain to the lawyer the situation. The lawyer will make some kind of affidavit explaining the mistake(sorry i forgot the term) . Might cost u 10-$20.

I had that affidavit since there was a mistake on my Birth certificate and i got my visa. U better have it even when u don't need it than need it and not have it. Good luck!
