L2 EAD Name correction

[savymanz]

Hi,

My L2 EAD was approved and I received the notice and card last week but there is a spelling mistake with my name on both, the EAD card and the EAD notice. They have missed out one letter in my first name.

I verified all the documents I had provided along with the application and the mistake is not from my side and it is from USCIS. I have a few concerns regarding this.

• What are the next steps I should take to get the name corrected in the notice and the card? How to apply for correction?
  
• I will be travelling out of the US for 2 weeks this month. If I apply for correction now, will it be a problem that I might not be in US when they are re-processing my application?
  
• Is it alright to apply for the correction once I am back from vacation with my new I94? Or would that be considered as a new application?
  
• Is it alright to apply for jobs now with the copy of the current EAD stating that I have applied for correction of name?
  

Please help as soon as possible. Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks
