Please my names are the same but the alignment of my first and middle name was interchanged with regards to what i have on all other official documents...the surname was rightly placed...only the alignment of first and middle name was interchanged like instead of Eneh Vincent Chidozie it came out as Eneh Chidozie Vincent and i wanna study, marry n work overseas....wont it affect me?? Should i start trying to interchange it

BamBella:


Is the name on your passport totally different from the ones you have on your other documents? If Yes, then you should go to the immigration headquarters in Abuja. That's the only place I know in Nigeria that issues like this can be resolved, don't let anyone tell you otherwise. When you get to the immigration headquarters, go straight to the Glass house and explain to any elderly officer you see around, please don't give the work to junior officers.

I said elderly officers because they seem to be the only reasonable ones who takes the work serious, after explaining he/she will tell you how much it will cost you. Whatever the amount they tell you, please don't bargain it too much as that alone might delay your work. I'm talking from experience, I'm sure you know how Nigeria government establishments work. With money you can easily buy your way through

If you want to Change it because you're now married, then you need to go along with some documents. E.g; your marriage certificate.

But whatever the case, be ready to spend a huge amount of money and also you'll need to be patient because the processing takes time.

My people....please all my names were correctly spelt and my surname was correctly placed. But my middle name and last name positions was interchanged and i just noticed it now( two weeks after collection).

On my official documents it was written as Eneh Vincent Chidozie but on my international passport it is written as Eneh Chidozie Vincent.

Correct details is

Surname is Eneh
Given names are Vincent Chidozie

But they wrote

Surname as Eneh
Given names as Chidozie Vincent

So the alignment has changed from Eneh Vincent Chidozie( which is on all other official documents) to Eneh Chidozie Vincent( on the international passport)


Please my people i intend to study further, marry and work overseas..will this wrong alignment pose a problem for me?? If yes...how do i go about it now that it is still early and fresh
