Hi all,
My question is that in all of my educational documents (degrees, certificates), my father's name is xxx yyy wakkel, whereas his official name (as in identity card etc) is xxx yyy wakeel (mistake in surname). Will it be a problem during visa processing? I've asked some seniors they told me to furnish an affidavit, as its not a serious mistake. Kindly have your say Thanks.. :)

I have the same problem with my mother's name. She made an Affidavit of Two Disinterested person where in the affidavit stated the both names is one person only. She have it signed by two person (our close family friend and her cousin) and then notarized it by public lawyer.

It should be fine. I had the same problem. Infact my father's middle name was missing, as long as its the correct one on your passport...it should all be good.
