Fathers name and DOB mismatch

[bhanu407]

Hi Everyone,

Could some one please clarify about the following ?

 

1. My fathers name is printed as KRISHNAMURTHY in my passport. My father recently got an passport and his name is printed as KRISHNA MURTHY (with a space in between KRISHNA and MURTHY). Will this be a problem if he goes for Visitor visa interview?

 

2. When I was attending my last H1B visa interview, I mentioned my fathers date of birth as 15 JULY 1958 in my DS160. My father recently got an passport and his Date of birth is showing up as : 17 JULY 1959. I am planning to attend my H1B visa interview in couple months. In the new DS160, which date of birth of my father I should mention? Can I stick to the old one or can i mention the DOB showing in my fathers passport?

 

Thanks for your help.

Better to mention new DOB as per your father's passport. You should not have any issues.
