Birth Certificate Inaccuracies

[Jamie76 0]

My fiancee's birth certificate has an inaccuracy on it. Her father's listed age is 1 year older than it should be and her mother's is 1 year younger than it should be. How much of a problem is this going to be? She contacted someone regarding getting it changed and she was told that she, along with her mom and dad would have to come in to get it fixed. If it's not that big of a deal, we will let it go, but if it's something we need to get cleared up, I want her to get moving on it asap.

You definitely want to get that fixed. Any inaccuracies on an official document may land her in trouble in the future, especially now that you have an ongoing petition. I know it's not her info but her parents', but just better to be safe than sorry.

Get it corrected, some embassies have document verification processing and this could give you months of

additional delays.

MY SO's name was misspelled and we had it fixed. It's best to have everything in order and done correctly. It might be a hassle now, but might save you headache in the longrun.

Another problem has popped up. She called the place where her birth was registered and the officer there said that both of her parents and her would have to come in to clear it up. Well her mom may be able to but, her father works all day so that presents a problem. Any suggestions on this one?

Calling USCIS and the Consulate and explaining the inaccuracies would be all I can think of. However, making that information obvious would only mean for sure you need to fix it.

Your interview will still be down the road. maybe he could pick a day sometime between now and then to try to take some time off of work to get it fixed? I really do think it would be best to fix this now. Who knows? It might go by unnoticed, but I wouldn't want to chance it.
