My beneficiary's actual birth place (let's call it Town A) is different than the town listed on his birth certificate (we can call this Town B). Town A and Town B are two different towns about 50km apart. He was born in a hospital in Town A, but was issued a birth certificate in his hometown, Town B. He has a government ID from Town B, and I already submitted the i-129f form and put his actual birth of place, Town A. He is currently applying for a passport and does not know if he should put his birth place as Town A or Town B in the passport. What should he do?

i suggest to put town b, which is the one indicated in the birth certificate. you should have indicated town b in i-129f as well because that's what the your best proof of birth indicated.

Follow what is stated in the birth certificate.

Agree with what others have said...

 

Your other choice, getting the birth certificate corrected, is akin to Don Quixote going off to battle a windmill. Pick your battles, and this one is likely one you don't want to try to fight.

 

Good luck on your immigration journey.
