ShootingStar88:
Good morning everyone, please I have this challenge and i'll appreciate your useful responses.

I applied for my first international passport( e-passport) about 6years ago but because of the information I didn't have then, I used 1986 as my year of birth but now I want to change it to the normal 1985 because all other credentials have 1985.

I waited for the passport to expire which it has last February, so i'm willing to do a new one but all those I spoke to said I can't change the year of birth because once I do the BIOMETRICS, it will bring up all my data even if I don't show my expired passport

Please kindly advise on the steps to take to change this or even contacts that can help. I don't even mind going to Abuja for this thing to change.

thanks house. This is what ignorance can cause.

cc. Justwise

You are wrong. You must go to Abuja if you're changing Date of Birth.

No you must not. things have changed. apply through the portal first and see

Hi All on this thread,

stop paying agents. Changing anything on international passport can be done through the portal.

google nigerian immigration portal, go to the site, apply for a change of whatever , fill the form, pay the fee of about 15 or 17k online, get an appointment date immediately and go for the interview.

Make sure you go with the necessary documents for the interview and you would be fine.

you do not need to spend more than 17k to get all these done the right way.

i am applying for a name change and it is all i did. my interview is next week. and No you dont have to go to abuja, i am doing this in port harcourt.

Jaydee11:


Hello Enubel, you can change your date of birth at Abuja without stress, you just have to go with all D necessary documents. As regards your visa to UK, make sure you apply for ur visa with both passports and explain why you have a different date of birth. Make sure u submit all your supporting documents and explain it. I wish you d very best. I had a similar issue but thank God it is sorted now nd I am presently in UK by the grace of God. Wish u D very best. Cheers

I finally changed the date of birth in my passport. It was not as hard as i thought, infact I got my passport changed within 1 week without paying for express, It was God's favour all through and perfect timing.

elyna:
you too? to say I was scared is an understatement. I was suspecting him of being diabolic.

elyna:
I refused to date him so he told me I'll later beg him to marry me.
