Difference in name on birth certificate and passport..Need help please!!!

[ManCharsey 254]

Hi everyone.

I have a question that has been bugging me for days. I am filling out the adjustment of status forms : I-485, g-325a etc. I have 2 birth certificates. The original birth certificate issued to my parents when I was born has the name John David Doe while the certificated copy of my birth certificate which was recently registered has only John Doe. On all my official documents like passport, school certificates etc. I have only John Doe and never use my middle name David. Below are the options I have thought about -

Option 1: In the adjustment of status forms should I list my middle name David and include my original birth certificate which shows that middle name?

Option 2: should I just use my first and last names John Doe and just include my updated certified copy of birth record which was recently registered?

Option 3: should I just use my first and last name: John Doe , leave my middle name blank and in the other names section use David. Attach all two birth certificates and include an explanation on the discrepancy?

An answer will be deeply appreciated. Thank you very much in advance!

Since your most recently registered birth certificate has no middle name and your passport has no middle name, then perhaps file your documents to match your passport and use a combo of #2 and #3. State John David Doe for other names used. I am not sure if you need to add in a copy of the other birth certificate and an explanation. Seems like that may just complicate matters.
