Name shortened on NOA

[mohan142]

Hi,

My First name has a space in it like "Mohan Das". On my NOA the second part of my first name is shortened. like Mohan D.

Will the name be same on OPT card as well?

Do I need to file a request to modify it?

If I have to will it delay the OPT processing?

Thanks for your help.

You have not listed what your last name is or how many characters it has. If the name is too long, then they will shorten first name so they can list full last name.
