Attention immigration applicants: inconsistencies between your name on your passport and immigration forms can lead to delays or complications in the application process.
Here's how to ensure your name is accurately represented:
- Match your passport: Enter your name exactly as it appears on your passport, including any additional information like "Nee."
- Double-check for accuracy: Review your forms for typos or inconsistencies before submitting.
- Handle special characters: If your name includes umlauts, accents, or other special characters, ensure they are entered correctly.
- Address non-English naming conventions: Be mindful of differences in naming conventions for Arabic, Chinese,Indian, Russian, and Spanish names.
- Provide additional information: Use the "Other Names Used" section to clarify any differences, such as married vs. maiden name.
- Seek guidance when unsure: If you have any doubts, consult the National Visa Center (NVC) or the relevant U.S.embassy/consulate.
By following these guidelines, you can minimize the risk of delays and ensure a smoother immigration process.
