Wrong birthplace on marriage certificate

[melylags]

Please help. My husband and I are finishing up our PR application and just received our marriage certificate in the mail. We noticed that my birthplace is wrong -- it states I was born in "US Minor Islands" but I was not, I was born in California USA. We did not list this as my birthplace, so it is likely a clerical error on behalf of Service Ontario. We are going to get this corrected, but we are frustrated because it's just going to delay our application process. Should we submit the wedding certificate with the error and a letter of explanation or wait to receive a corrected one?

Also, my husband's passport does not show a middle name, so we did not list it in our PR application forms, but in our wedding certificate it does have a middle name for him. It is the only form that shows a middle name for him. Is this going to cause any issues?

if it won't take too long...prefer you correct the cert.

you may list the middle name in the form.

Just include a letter of explanation for both. Not an issue.

We called them. They had dominica as opposed to dominican. They rushed us a new copy within 4 days of receiving original!!!
