STEM Extension - receipt name wrong

07-23-2016, 05:32 PM

I applied for my STEM Extension (+ 7 months) and received my I 797c receipt notice today. Unfortuately my last name is spelt wrong on the receipt notice.

What can I do in such a case ? Since the deadline for the application is on August 8 I'm not sure what my options are. Should I submit a new i 765 with the filing fees again.

Was your name spelled wrong on the application, or did USCIS make the error? If it is the USCIS’ mistake, call them and make sure the error is corrected.
