Passport and Visa names interchanged

[harish_1405]

Hi,

While filling out the forms for B1/B2 application, I entered the names interchanged.

Names as in Passport

Surname: Null
Given name: YYYY YYYY

But in Visa application form, I filled it as

Surname: YYYY YYYY
First name: FNU

Now I got the visa stamped for 10 year multiple entry. Will this be a problem at POE.

I have to travel in a week.
What need to be done ??

If this needs to be corrected, what are the steps to follow to get this corrected.
What all documents do I need to carry and whom should I approach.

Thanks

It is common and VFS asks you to fill the form this way. Not a problem.

Hi,

I also have similar issue.

Have you got any issue while traveling.

That is how it is

Don't worry. The Consular Website asks you to fill it like that.
Happened to me too.

Let's say my name is Sharukh Khan, where my Surname or also known as Family Name is Khan and my First name is Sharukh. But say I screwed up while applying for Passport.

So now the Passport says:

Surname : ( BLANK )
Given Name: Sharukh Khan

When i apply for a Visa I would be asked for my Given Name and Surnames.


Here i would be typing as follows

SURNAME: SHARUKH KHAN
GIVEN NAME: FNU ( FIRST NAME UNAVAILABLE)

Don't worry this is the format you have to follow.

You are welcome to PM me for more questions. Thanks
