Please help.. advice needed - wrong DOB
I posted on visa journey with no response.
Our lawyer filed our i130 & g325a with the petitioners dob as 29 instead of 28. We found out when we received noa1 with the error, informed the lawyer and she mailed the asks with the error and proud of error.
Anyway after that we fired the lawyer obviously. We called a few months after and found we couldn't get info on our apt because the dob is still wrong, the guy not he phone said he would change it.
Anyway now we are supposed to be approved and the DOB is still wrong. we have an infopass apt not for anther few weeks... is this really bad? how much will it delay or deny??
please help me.... we are losing all hope

Anyway...
Presumably a copy of the Birth certificate and/or passport was included in the application? At worst you'll probably receive an RFE, you won't get a denial based on that mistake.

Haha what do you mean first mistake? Is visajourney not good?! I spent a lot of time on it however the replys were 'how can you forget your birthday' when it clearly states it was the lawyer! People are mean....
Yes the passport and bc were included. Do you think it might not even get a rfe?

Just to warn you. Don't expect it to be any different or more easy going here.

I misunderstood what you said... I don't expect people to be nicer here, however I don't see why people feel the need to bring other people down.. anyway, just want to see if anyone has any more advice as nobody has seen this error before

My guess is that the DOB will not be an issue, and can be corrected at some point along your immigration journey.
Is this an AOS from marriage to a USC, other family member, or work?

Ah, for an Immigrant Visa via USC spouse. Moving thread to marriage-based forum.

He meant you might get similar remarks on this forum as you did on VJ. Just be aware.

It is always the applicant's responsibility to verify that the paperwork is correct before it is submitted - even if you have a lawyer working for you.
No! People are honest.
No one can say for sure, but if you submitted proof of your DOB, then it's likely that someone will simply correct the mistake and continue processing the paperwork.

Even if it never gets corrected at any other stage, it can be corrected at the visa interview.

Re: Please help.. advice needed - wrong DOB
If the petitioner is a US citizen, then this is totally a non-issue. It won't matter one bit that the USC's DOB is off. Further, if this happened on the G-325A, then it really won't matter at all. The G-325A is a legacy form that should have been dropped from the requirements years ago but, for some reason, never was. It is almost totally useless... and the anxiety it causes is inversely proportional to its actual value.
