My WAEC Certificate And NIGERIAN Passport Gives Different DOB. What To Do? by Romanticzigzag(op): 8:51am On Apr 28, 2020
Hi there,

I recently got my Nigerian Passport and the Date Of Birth is different from my WAEC Certificate, and most times I seek for job, I'm ask to submit my certificates.

What can I do about this?

[color=royalblue]Go and do a National Identity card and put the date that is on your WAEC certificate

Then you can submit that as a means of identification[/color]

My birthday certificate reads the one on my WAEC Certificate, and my international Passport gives the one on my BVN which is not correct.

So I had to choose the one for bvn cos I know the bvn is linked to NIN which is used for the International Passport.

Even my national ID card which is yet to be given to me(card) is done with my BVN details which is not the correct details.

So what to do?
