Last Name mismatch

[Mumu]

Hello All,

 

In my parents passport there is a slight mismatch in the spelling of the last name (one letter), My father's lastname  appears as xxxxAxxxx & mother's lastname as xxxxExxxx. 

I wanted to know if that difference will cause any problem when they applying for visitor visa.if yes, what are the options to correct it. make correction in the passport or we can get affidavit stating this correction. Please provide your suggestion.Thank you!.

Will not be an issue. Still make correction in passport.

Why would they not get a corrected passport? Why did they not get it corrected when they first received the passport?

Thanks for the replies.

 

@t75: They have just received it. As they planning for this summer, dont have enough time to make correction.. so wanted to check if it's ok.
