Stopped at Airport: One Document Change Puts US Visa and Green Card at Risk

A Gujarati visitor visa holder traveling to the United States was recently stopped at immigration in India and denied boarding due to a discrepancy between his passport and US visa sticker. Although he had previously visited the US twice without any issue, changing his date of birth on his official documents (to match his birth certificate for an upcoming family-sponsored Green Card petition) created a major conflict: his renewed passport showed the updated date of birth, while his existing US visa retained the old date.
