A: If there's an error in the birthday on your immigration document in Texas, and it persists despite being corrected, take immediate action. Keep records of the correction and contact the issuing authority to explain the situation, providing evidence of the correction.

Make sure to consistently update records with other relevant agencies to ensure accurate information. Addressing errors promptly is crucial to avoid potential consequences associated with incorrect immigration documentation.

A: In cases where a corrected birthday is printed incorrectly again on immigration documents, it's important to take prompt and detailed action. Initially, gather all relevant documents, including any proof of the initial correction request and the resulting incorrect document. This will help in demonstrating the ongoing issue to the authorities.

Next, contact the agency that issued the document. This might be the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) or another relevant immigration authority. Explain the situation clearly, emphasizing that this is a repeated error. It may be helpful to do this in writing, so there's a record of your correspondence.

If the issue persists or you encounter difficulties in resolving it, consider seeking assistance from an attorney experienced in immigration law. They can guide you through the process, ensuring that all necessary steps are taken to correct the error. Remember, accurate personal information on legal documents is crucial for your immigration process, so it's vital to address this issue promptly and thoroughly.
