Hello everyone! I just want to share my experience and maybe get some advice or help others who might face the same issue. I’m currently applying for an IR1 visa, and I’ve already completed my biometrics and medical. My interview was originally scheduled for November 3, but during the pre-screening, the consular staff noticed a discrepancy in my documents. Apparently, my father’s middle name on my birth certificate is misspelled — it has an extra “g” (written as Calungsag). I honestly didn’t notice it before. All my other documents (marriage certificate, report of marriage, and advisory on marriage) showed the correct spelling, Calunsag. Because of this, the consular officer gave me a yellow form with the note: “Father’s middle name sa per BC.” She told me that my AOM should match what’s written on my birth certificate, even if it’s a typo. So my interview was rescheduled while I fixed the issue. But I still don't know what to do. Should I file for a petition for correction?

This issue is the same with mine. My fathers middle name on my birth certificate was misspelled. Instead of Calunsag it was misspelled as "Calungsag ". But all of my other documents like, marriage certificate, ROM was all correct. I just dont know what to do. My interview was rescheduled due to this btw.
