AHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I just got the BEST BIRTHDAY PRESENT EVER - MY EMPLOYMENT AUTHORIZATION CARD AND I-821D APPROVAL LETTER!

I am SO HAPPY and so grateful to be given this opportunity.




But... My EAD has a major typographical error! Here's the story:

When I first filed my applications, the correspondance regarding my EAD Application had tons of typographical errors while my I-821D correspondance was perfect.

This is what they did:

My 'Real' Name: John Fabio Doe Carlos

I-821D Name: John Fabio Doe Carlos - c/o John Doe (How I wanted it to be)

EAD Card Name: John C Doe Carlos

EAD Correspondance Name: John Carlos Doe Carlos

I called USCIS on August 28th to get it fixed and I got a service request number. How ever, on the EAD card and EAD correspondance I got today, it still has the same typographical errors -__-

I just called again and LUCKILY I got an agent that was hispanic and understood the naming mess all hispanic have to deal with here in the Untied States! She even told me the agent that created the request back on August the 28th had no idea what she was typing.

Now I'm very nervous to go to the SSA office because she said they might or might not make a big fuss about it; it's up to the SSA office's discretion. I'm taking all the letter I received (the I-821D with my name correct, my EAD, the letter which had my EAD attached, and the service request number I just got).

Awww man, I hate ethnic names for this reason. OTHER (really, white) people decide what your name is because they don't want to be bothered, SMH.

I'm considering giving my children only two names (I have four). I'd give them one name if I could, f*** that.

Me too. I'm planning on dropping my middle name and maiden last name when I get married. That way my paternal last name can take the place of my middle name and I can take my husbands last name. Did that make any sense? lol

No, I'm hispanic; Chilean to be exact. That's just a fake name. I don't want to give out my full name on here.

I'm back from the SSA office. They processed the application and told me they have to verify my documents which can take up to 4 weeks. They accepted the EAD with the incorrect name after I explain to the employee and supervisor about the problem I had. I showed them my I-821D approval letter to prove it and they accepted it.

Hope everything goes smoothly and good luck everyone else!

I just got my i-797 and my name is wrong. They put my middle name twice for some reason. This sucks and I hope it does not delay my process more. I have to call them on Monday. I was on such a high too from being approved!!! What a downer! At least I'm approved!

When you call to get your named fixed, make sure you triple check they got your name right! Tell them to spell it out for you name by name.
