I opened my bank account when I was 17 years but the bank officer that opened the account for me suggested that I use 18 years because my documents were incomplete. I also did my BVN registration using the incorrect age.

Fast-forward to last year, I had to open a Firstbank account for a university scholarship program and a valid ID card was requested so I had to register for a National ID card. In the registration the date of birth I gave (which is the correct one) was different from the one in my BVN. When I went to collect the print out some weeks later, it didn't come out and even the person that registered me doesn't know why.

Later someone told me that it failed to come out because the date of birth in my registration is different from the one in my BVN.I later used my admission letter to open the Firstbank account.

Now the Firstbank account is currently frozen with money inside and I have been asked to bring a valid ID card. I went to my original bank to correct the BVN and I was also asked to bring a valid ID and affidavit.

Firstly, I would like to know how I can get a valid National ID card with a BVN that has a wrong date of birth.

Secondly, is it possible to use the wrong date of birth in another NIN registration and the correct it later.

Thirdly, since my finger prints were captured in the first registration, is it possible to do another registration.

Pls I need help urgently since I desperately need the money stuck in the account.

Dagbo lord.

Go to court for the Affidavit.

pls share with me the scholarship programme

You should have used the age on the BVN when you registered for NIN. What you can do now is to go back to where you registered your BVN and make the correction.

Always stick to one set of details in future.

Thanks for the contribution. Must the correction be done the place that I registered?

They normally announce it when it comes out. That's usually around October and November every year. Just google SPDC 2019/2020 university scholarship to know if application is still on. Good luck
