Error in Foreign Document- Divorce Decree

[woodstockdave 0]

My wife divorced her previous husband several years ago and the divorce decree was written in a small rural town using a typewriter and it is full of errors. The last name of her daughter is spelled incorrectly and several dates contradict each other. This document seems to be necessary at every step of the immigration process. Will she be denied because of these errors? There is a marriage certificate available in the Registro Civil that would include information about the termination of her previous marriage. Could that be used instead of the original divorce decree?

Check the document on this site: http://guayaquil.usconsulate.gov/what_to_bring_to_your_interview.html

At the bottom it has examples of what documents are accepted. If you don't see the answer to your question there, send an email to the Consulate, they are pretty good about responding.
