I-129F error in petitioner's birthdate
ARGHH!! No matter how many times things are double & triple checked,
errors can still slip by. I have just discovered that the petioner's
birthdate on our I-129F application for a K1 Visa is incorrect. It
was just submitted on February 11th and we have not received the first
NOA yet.
Instead of September 20th, it reads September 29th. The birthdate is
correct on his G325A and of course his birth certificate is also
included. Do we do anything? Or just wait for INS to contact him
regarding this error?

I would wait for the 1st NOA to arrive, this way you have a case number to make inquiries. Then I would call Vermont Service Center ASAP, see what they suggest.

Re: I-129F error in petitioner's birthdate
Let me add an explanation to Claudia's "wait for a receipt number." I had the same basic question: should I send now or wait for them to ask. From what I have learned here in three months of waiting, it appears that until the service center asks you for information, they have no easy way of locating your particular envelope among thousands, and so they have no easy way of adding any new stuff. But when a person finally does look at your petition and formally asks for information or clarification (an "RFE"), they then have a way of matching your response with the original materials. The bottom line seems to be that it is almost pointless to send anything until they ask. Additionally, I suppose that it is possible that the human reading the forms might not even notice -- seems like an easy thing to overlook.
