Discrepancy between Birth Certificate and Passports for my parents middle names and birthdates

[jokem8961 0]

1. My mothers middle name is listed as an initial 'M' on my birth certificate, but her full middle name ,"Macy" ,  appears on her U.S Passport and Auto Driver License. In addition, her birthdate was recorded incorrectly on my birth certificate as 01/12/1970, while the correct date, as reflected in all of her official documents, including the U.S Passport, is 01/13/1970 or 13 Jan 1970.  

2. Neither my fathers middle name nor his initial appear on my birth certificate, where his name is listed simply as "Roger Rabbit". However, his full legal name, "Roger Maxwell Rabbit" appears on his U.S. passport and driver's license. The name used in this form reflects his correct and legal full name as recognized by all current official U.S. documents.

 

Both of these are the issues as well as the responses I gave in the Additional Information section of form I-130. I've gotten advice to just remove these additional responses and not complicate it, so I wanted to know if this is normal or not, how to proceed, and if my explanation is thorough enough. Should I include copies of their passports for proof?

Use their full names.  You are being asked a simple question about their names.  You know the correct answer, so provide it.  You will not be required to document it.  If a name on a birth certificate was going to be meaningful, it would be you parents' names on YOUR birth certificate.  Even if there is a discrepancy there, provide the correct and accurate answer to the questions asked.

Got it, so just provide their names how its now and ignore any discrepancies from my birth certificate, and removing the additional information I assume. Did I understand that correctly?

Even more simple. You know their real names.  Just answer the question with the truth.  There is no "how it is now".  It just "is".
