It seems silly, but I really do want it to match and be all one name since that is what it is on our Social Security cards, Drivers License, credit cards, legal name change doc, etc. Guess I'll have to send the passports back. Ugh. I am a little worried they won't fix it though since it was submitted properly with no space in the first place.
If you submitted without a space and they put in a space then they should change them. I'd suggest that whatever you do you d it now and in a consistent manner.
