Could This Affect My Visa Application To Relocate Abroad? by Blackboy1992(op): 8:15pm On May 27, 2022
I'm a Beninese. I schooled in Nigeria and got my first degree in Business Administration and management. I would love to go to Australia or probably the UK for my masters degree.

My surname as written on all my school certificates in Nigeria is AMINU but on my Beninese Birth certificate and international passport, it is written as AMINOU.

Would this be an issue?

Please admin lalasticla, move this to front page. I need people's opinion on this.

What of date of birth on my WAEC certificate?
It's meant to be 05/04/2000 but it's 06/04/2000.
Please this is urgent!

The first question is what's written on your international passport? Whatever is written there is what you should stick to. Then you can then do a court affidavit. This may become a problem in the future if it's not properly handled.
