Some of the information provided on my IV application was incorrect. This was done by my lawyer and she didn't allow me to review before submitting. How will this affect my case. I'm outside the USA awaiting interview date

Many petitioners made errors or mistakes while filing the IV applications .. that's why they review them so they can correct them especially when it comes to birthdays dates or dates of marriage etc. when reviewing your documents .. they see the mistake .. so they correct it .. according to your documents .. I made a mistake .. and I kept quiet about it and nothing happen at all.. at the interview .. you submit your original documents .. those are your strong evidence...

Give some examples of the errors and why would a lawyer not go over the answer with her client before submitting the documents.?

I'm the wife of a us citizen. My spouse has included my son in the process ( step son). His fathers date of birth was requested and the dated n month is incorrect, time spent on last visit is incorrect. Laywer has 1 month, it should be one week.The lawyer did not contact me or my spouse to verify detail before submitting. We only got a mail after everything was already submitted.

I remember when I filed the IV application .. I made a mistake about the date of my marriage .. I was sure about it .. but I didn't call NVC to correct it .. so my case got completed without any complication.. on the interview time .. the error wasn't even mentioned.. . all I know is the visa got issued and everything went well and I didn't hire a lawyer.. did everything myself through visa journey..

I wouldn't worry too much about that. My husband's ex-wife's birthday is different on different documents, so what could I do? I just wrote the truth (or at least what my husband thinks is the truth) on the forms I filled out. As a previous poster said, I doubt anyone notices. Don't point it out, and if it's brought up at the interview, just say simply that the lawyer made a mistake.

I forgot to put my middle name in my IV application form and let the officer know on the day. He said it was fine. I also miscalculated the length of one of my visits by a day but it hasn't come back to bite me so far.

ROC from CR-1 visa (Green Card expiration date was Nov 24th 2016)

 

Link to the evidence I submitted. Be sure to send evidence spanning your entire marriage (especially for K-1) or as far back as you can. Just one or two bank statements will not cut it. I primarily focused on the two years of living here since I came in on a CR-1. If you don't have the fundamentals (i.e. joint accounts/policies), you can explain why in the covering letter. E.g. "While we do not have joint utilities, we both contribute to them from our joint bank account".
