Hi, I have the same problem with my mom.

She is using a current name(Cheryl)that is different from her birth certificate.

Her name in my birth certificate(Ma. Theresa) I'm guessing it is the same name that she uses in her birth certificate.

My sisters birth certificate says that my mom is using the Cheryl name.

All her supporting ID and school records are in Cheryl name.

She said they didn't change her name legally. They just change it when she enters elementary school.

We still have to check her marriage certificate on which name she use.

Now, I am the one petitioning her to come to the US.

Is it easier and faster to just follow the name in her birth certificate?

(keep in mind that my birth certificate says Ma. Theresa as my mom)

We are still in the first step of getting her a passport. Then I can start doing my petition for her to come to the US.

I had my mom's name fixed before I applied for any legal documents such as passport or petitioned her. Her birth cert from NSO should matched to any legal supporting documents she has. Such as her name registered on my birth certificate. It usually takes 3-4 months but luckily we knew someone that works in civil registrar in our city and had it all done within 2 months. The legal name she has been using doesn't have Maria but when she received her NSO BC she found out that it has MARIA.

Make sure all the names, dates, etc in every supporting documents matched.

Good luck! :)
