Hi everyone,

Please, my brother did the capturing for his passport but is yet collect due to the delay in issuing passport these days. The problem is there was a mistake in the date of birth. Instead of 2001, what was registered was 2000. Please how can this be corrected before the passport is printed out. Cos, am hearing that after capturing no changes can be made again. Please what's d solution

I think that correction can only be done in Abuja. are you sure the passport is not produced?

Good day all. Thank you house for the information passed. I m in a similar situation. How can I change my DOB to reflect the original DOB I have in my Bsc transcript. The DOB I used in my international passport was different. How can I go about it.

Boss I want to know, were u able to get it done?

Yes, i have used it to travel to other countries before. The age difference is a year, for example to change year 1983 to year 1982.
Day and month remain the same.

regards.

Boss were u able to effect the change?

Please, I have similar issue. I did my passport in 2008 but never used it. It has expired since 2013. I just realized recently that it has a four year difference in my date of birth which makes the DOB captured on my passport incorrect. Should I apply for a new one, hoping the data captured in 2008 will not pop up the previous information?

Sorry but I had to quote you. You’ve been here since 2007 with only one post? Shocked.

Pls what about place of birth.
It ought to be Osogbo but we mistakenly put Ibadan. Can it cause any issue later?
We just captured this week.

They can correct it before they produce it, but once they produce it you must go to Abuja

Thanks for the response.

So the man that helped us with the application said we ought to have corrected it on the day of capturing. He added that since they have submitted, there is nothing that can't be done unless we go to Abuja after it's out.

Tho he added that it might not really matter much that it's date of birth and Local Govt of Origin that really matter.

It can still be recalled before production, all they had to do is ticket the file and iris will work on it to do the correction before the passport is produced. Once the passport is produced, you're looking at spending 100k to correct it and you'll have to go to Abuja on top of that
