Hello,

I've just realized I wrote my city name with two letters in the place of each other in the application form (imm1294e). Usually my city name is often spelled with two variations, there is no "official" English name for it, and if you search for the city name I put in my application, you will get results about the city and its correct name spelling. However, in my letter of explanation, I wrote it correctly. Would that be a huge problem for immigration officers? I know I'm being punctilious, but I just want to be safe, because if it were so problematic, I'd email them through the Web Form and correct this really tiny error.

What are two spelling variations, what did you use in form and in letter?

Asyut and Assiut. In the form, I used "Assuit" (slight spelling error) and in the letter I wrote "Assiut". I don't know if that will be a deal-breaker for immigration officers. I pointed that out in the Web Form just now nevertheless.

Yeah, in my opinion, it's not a big deal. But good thing you informed..
