Surname field Blank in Passport "Name Bifurcation"

I dont have surname mentioned in my passport and any of my educational certificates. Now my H1B Petition (I797B) got approved with the same name on passport (Satyanarayana Raju), can I apply for “Name Bifurcation” spliting name as Fristname: Satyanarayana and Surname as Raju.

Will this "Name Bifurcation" will effect my H1b stamping as I797 was approved on the name as in passport, please solve my problem.

Hi Raju,

I am in similar situation where Surname in is blank and Given Name contains full name. My I797B has been approved. Can I go for name bifurcation in new passport. WIll it involve any amendment to approved petition?

Thanks in advance.

First of all, you all need to fix the surname blank issue in passport and then look at amendments to your I-797 forms. All of you please read article : Surname Blank in Passport, First Name as FNU in US Visa - Issues – Solution - RedBus2US
