Middle name Spelling different on Marriage Certificate than Birth Certificate

[CNDTOFL 0]

I am recently married and in the process of putting together documents required to submit the I-30.. I've noticed a minor difference in the spelling of my middle name (an "E" where and "i" should be) on my marriage certificate in comparison to my birth certificate. My Canadian passport does not include my middle name. We were married in Florida and the fee to make this change will be approximately $500 plus several weeks processing time. Will the minor difference be an issue in the filing of the CR-1, is it worth the $$ and putting off mailing in the I-30 (we would like to get the ball rolling as soon as possible). Looking forward to your thoughts....

I would try to file as is and if they reject it or RFE you, then you move forward with changing the name.

To be honest there are a lot of surprising things for me here. 1) your middle name is not on your Canadian passport 2) that you would have to pay to fix a marriage certificate that was messed up when it's not your fault.

You can try, of course, and personally I would attempt to get this fixed before the DS-260. It's also possible that you may can an RFE for it as well.
