What should I do if my visa application was canceled due to a mistake in my name?

So when I read posts like this, I have to run down to my pending application and check and oh yeah, I put in my middle name probably because there was a field for it.

So a couple things the website likes to change your information when it scans your passport and they know about this and I think they should fix it and not grab people’s money for it, because it was constantly changing my birthday to the 13th and the 14th, so I screenshot of that and I included that in the application. However, the application reads is having the correct date as of on my end at least.

I think that $300 is kind of a lot of money to lose for a petty mistake and I think that a lot of the comments in the comment here are really petty and rude.

But the thing is if you didn’t check it and it was required they have the right to refuse it, so you can contact them about them and see if they will reconsider, I don’t know if you use the credit card, but if I was me, I probably would charge it back, But I think I went over the thing like 20 times and I still am even after reading the comments in this group, which I should probably turn off while my application is pending.

But if this happened to me, I think I would probably reach out to the embassy instead of just giving them more money or I would just go to a different country because it is kind of a small mistake, but I would be asking for my money back actually And I would probably go somewhere else if I were in this position, I wouldn’t just take it as a lesson learned or whatever people say they think that they give such advice, but if it happened to them, they wouldn’t take their own advice. They would be just as angry or upset or letdown.

Anything legal and including your passport needs to match 100%

Same for friend with the 3rd forgotten first name, just now, which embassy?

why can’t he just fill in his middle name. Seems silly. He should definitely contact them.

Thats what i call tuition fees.

I understand that you may feel disgusted, but as you mentioned, this is your mistake. The system in Thailand is different from others, and this likely won't be the last time you feel this way. What matters most is that you accept it and move forward. Otherwise, Thailand might not be the right place for you.

You forgot you had a middle name and you want to gain unlimited access to a foreign country for upto 5 years? I think you should stay home or made to pay double

You cannot make any mistakes on your passport information. You can fail to or submit improper documents and they will request additional, but passport data mistakes are untouchable, end of story.

I’d advise anyone applying online to read their full submission 5 times before submitting. The website will automatically correct things like date of birth and the name field.

As mentioned many times, even one letter out of place will result in your application being denied with no chance to resubmit (without paying again)

I guess they don’t want people who don’t know their own name

Are you a serious person?

If $300 is too much for you then perhaps the whole DTV may not be for you. I had my first application cancelled in August but I simply reapplied without hesitation to another consulate and was approved.

Sorry to hear that :(

One mistake, NO VISA!!!

Look forward, if they don’t want you and your money, there are around some other beautiful countries.

I’m still waiting, if I get mine approved I’m happy, if not I’ll sell my bike and leave!

I wouldn’t apply again if I were you, except you really want to go there on a DTV

I understand your frustration. This is however typical immigration process.

When I applied for my permanent residency in Canada, I made one tiny mistake in spelling and my entire application got rejected after being in the system for months. It took me another 1.5 years to be successful as the program changed after I got rejected.

And this is just the start of where the games begin. Haven’t even really started to hear what happens when people get to level 2. The re-entry.

I got very lucky. When I called my embassy in Ottawa Canada, that was one thing they warned me about. Sorry it happened to you.
