Procedure to change the DOB in birth certificate

Hi,

I want to know how to change the date of birth in birth certificate.

One of my friend has different date of birth in the certificates (school, college etc.) and the birth certificate. Since her DOB lies after 26-Jan-1989, birth certificate is mandatory for applying passport.

Kindly let me know, is there any ways to apply for passport without submitting birth certificate or any other ways to change the DOB in the birth certificate.

u can get a direction from court to correct the date of birth...

PAVAN KUMAR AKA (Junior Civil Judge)     25 May 2011

Firstly you have to verify on which basis the date of birth was entered in to SSC marks list.   In many states, the date of birth in the SSC marks list will be considered as proof of it.   Some times, the date of birth certificate issued by the Municipal/Local bodies willl be considered.  As such, first of all you have to verify all these points.   Later, on having proper idea of all these variations, you have to approach the jurisdiction Court of law in Civil nature submitting all the facts and to file a suit seeking directions to the concerned authorities to correct the date of birth and basing on the grounds explained, the direction will be given by the Court.   Then only, it is applicable.

Hi,

I do not have a birth certificate. I have used my SSLC certificate till now as DOB proof. Now i need my birth certificate, and i have applied for a birth certificate with the copy of SSLC . I have received reply from corporation that it is not registered yet. Please let me know how to proceed with getting a birth certificate? I am from Kerala.

In such case you need to apply for the Mandal Revenue Officer of your area informing the same fact of your unableness to get registration of your date of birth. Then on causing enqquiry, they will issue one certificate and basing on that you need to apply to Sub Collector seeking direction to issue directions to the local birth and death registrar (municipality) to register your date of birth with name.

Hi,I do have the same problem...i.e.,D.O.B in all certificates is same except DO.B. certificate issued from registrar of births and deaths...I want to change the the date in D.O.B. certificate.

In my case the reason is when i am small i have given the birth year as 1989(actually 1990) to school because every student is telling his birth year as 1989 and i dont know the exact year of my birth at that time..so i simply told 1989..


Now can you please elaborate what is the detailed process.??what are the 'facts' that i have to submit??

Its better to cause enquiries in your Local Revenue authoriteis. But, it may be a difficult for you to get changed your date of birth now, since a suspecion may arouse as to change of date of birth at this juncture.  Even though, it is better to get enquiries with your local authoriteis and basing on the discussions, a solution can be found at some times.

Dear Sir, I was born in sharjah on 11th jan 1990 around 11:50pm( IST +4:30). Since at that time  birth certificate was not important my parents didnt collect it. Now since its mandatory for passport i somehow manged to obtain a birth certificate from dubai consulate , but my DOB is 11th on it and no  time was mentioned.'

Since my  parents decided to follow IST my DOB was given 12 th jan in all academic and corporate records.

Can you please advice on how to proceed with this change in DOB.

 

If needed to file an application in court ,please tell me the process ,fees and time it will take.

I have similar problem with my client. She has her dob 23/10/1946 on her school leaving certificate, and on other documents including passport. In 1946 neither such Birth Certificate {BC} was needed for admissions in school nor was it needed for passport before 1970 But Now for GC {Green Card} original dob is needed and we applied in for the same in her home city where her birth was registered on date 23/7/1946. If we request to change the dob on passport, still GC is remote as change in birth date is not accepted by Consulate offices and procedures hang. Also if we ask municipal authority, they say, if birth date is already 23/7/1946 is there, how can they provide even non existence certificate of 23/10/1946. We are not understanding how to manage this situation.
