Interview Next Week, I think I screw up, please help!

[leader114 1]

Hello brother and sister. My Interview is next week, and while I was checking my fiances forms, I've noticed that I put the international date format dd/mm/yyyy, instead of US format. So let me make it more clear.

My fiance was born in:

01/05/1988 (internationaly)

05/01/1988 (US/Canada and few other countries.)

So now my orginal I-129f and the G-325 have wrong date format (01/05/1988 (internationaly) While all other forms have the correct one 05/01/1988.

So do you think they could refuse or delay my visa because of the wrong format? My interview is next week so I don't know what to do...... Give me some advice my brother and sister. thanks

Probably delay. Contact them and let them know ASAP

Just point out the mistake at your interview, It should not be an issue, You have to show your birth certificate anyway. They will understand the mistake.

Who I should contact with? NVC or Embassy or USCIS? I only have one week left from my interview....

*** Thread moved from K-1 Process forum to the Embassy/Consulate forum -- topic involves that phase. ***

(Organizer hat off)

E-mail the embassy now, if you want, but you can correct it at the interview as Jay-Kay says.

Waw, you're making me happy JAY-KAY. The interviewer officer can fix it? Thanks for the advice

First of all GOOD LUCK... You'll be fine.

It be crazy to hear that it be an issue... just say something at the interview, Im sure they would understand.

It is not that easy as it seems but you never know the mood of the Visa Officer. I would suggest you to write to the Embassy because it is out of NVC and USCIS hands. Please address the issue by mentioning the Case #, Interview Date, Beneficiary Name and DOB along with your information. At least your fiancé will

have ground to explain with your justification of error. I remember fixing name Parm to Param was a great deal and got delayed for months. You should do whatever you can do and it won't hurt rather than not doing anything. Good luck!!!!!!!!!

The problem is that Addis Ababa embassy don't check their Email. I'm pretty sure they will not do anything if i send them Email. I did it couple times. So I'll probably call the nvc and uscis to get idea about the situation. If the interviewer is reasonable then he can understand the format differences between US and the World.

Should my fiance hand this letter to the interviewer? What do you think please.

This is the message:

Dear Officer, I've noticed that my fiance made an apparent typo on my original i-129f application. He put my birth date in international format, (Day/Month/Year) instead of US format (Month/Day/Year). I immediately call National Visa Center and they said that's a minor error and your officer at the interview should be able to correct it.

05/01/1988 My birthday (American format)

01/05/1988 My birthday (My country format)

Thank you.

Thank you.

Handing in the paper is fine or just saying it verbally would also be fine.
