      Perhaps contact tgem and ask.

      OP maybe you should proof a bit more.

  • Liquid paper and do it yourself

    • Too obvious.
      Scan and then use a painting program to modify and print out again. Way less obvious.

    You spelled your own name wrong on the application, didn't you?

  • Ask teenage champion sprinter Gout Gout how his family got their family name corrected.

    Hint: they didn't. The correct translation of his Arabic name is Guot Guot, but because it wasn't corrected at the time they came to this country his family, him. and all their descendants are stuck with the wrong spelling - an unpleasant medical condition - as their official name in Australia forever.

    Lesson: get it fixed now before the misspelling proliferates through all the official records and becomes impossible to correct.

    Of course there are worse problems when you migrate to another country than having your name misspelled. Like having a name like Dikshit which your family eternally wishes had been misspelled when translated.

    I honestly wonder what's the logical thought process behind going from (i) oooh, my name is misspelled on this official government letter, to (ii) let's ask a bargain forum!!

      "logical thought process" is panic

      Language evolves, deal with it.

      • Including grammar?

    All the good ones only use one name.
