1)you cannot have 2 date of birth certificates

2) passport offices have records of earlier passport issued

3)you would get passport with DOB as 5/5/1994

4) on account of discrepancy in your date of birth in educational certificates and birth certificates your passport application was rejected

5) do you have hospital discharge reports reflecting actual date of birth

6) you would need court orders to change your date of birth in your birth certificate then apply for issue of new passport

1. If there is not 2 DOB appering in your public records then you will have to choose either of the two.

2.if you had a previous passport then preferably mention the same DB and do not change the new one.

3. If you change with new one then you will have to make an affidavit from the first class Magistrate and then make newspaper publication.

4. The passport authority accepts such affidavit whenever there is anomaly on DOB.

Hello,

If you have the DOB certificate and the educational certificate with the same DOB then there will be no issue in obtaining the passport when you apply as a major.

Go ahead and move your application.

1. A person cannot have two birth certificates. It is illegal.

2. The fact is that in your first passport the DOB is 5.5.94 whereas you want 6.4.95 as your DOB on the basis of the second birth certificate.

3. The DOB in your first passport is at variance from the DOB on your second certificate.

4. The remedy for you now is to surrender the first birth certificate to the Registrar of Births and Deaths and seek its cancellation if you want the SSC DOB to appear on your passport. Thereafter, you can apply for reissue of passport on the basis of the second birth certificate

You should file rectification cum cancellation application of  your old passport. You should show before the concerned authority that the old passport was applied by your father and after attending age of majority you are now applying for issuance of a new passport with correct date of birth as per the secondary education certificate. The passport authority will cancel the old passport and issue new passport after examining the educational document ascertainment of correct date of birth.

1. You can not apply or reapply for the passport during all the phases of your life i.e. during childhood, youth or old age.

2. If your grandfather or father is alive then he shall have to execute an affidavit before the 1st Class Judicial Magistrate affirming that inadvertently a wrong date of birth was mentioned while applying for your passport when you were a child but the correct DOB has been mentioned in all your educational and other certificates for which the DOB mentioned in your passport is required to be corrected with 5.5.1994 as your DOB by the passport authorities.

3. You can apply before the passport authorities for renewal of your passport with an application for correcting your DOB based on the said affidavit annexed therewith and on receipt of the same the passport authority will act accordingly.

You can apply for re-issue of passport with the new DOB with supporting documents for your new date of birth if you are applying first time after becoming major.

The DOB can be changed if convincing documentary evidences submitted
