Wrong "Country of Birth" on Green Card
Hi,
I am going to apply for my U.S. citizenship. I just discovered that the country of birth on my green card is wrong. I was born in Qatar, but my green card states that i was born in India. Could someone please tell me what I should do about correcting it. Thankyou.

Didn't you know that "India" is an alternative spelling for "Qatar?" I'm preparing an N-400 right now where the I-551 gave "Brazil" as an alternative spelling of "Israel."
Once you become a US citizen, who cares? It doesn't matter.
IMHO, the N-400 is an excellent way to "correct" it.
