Hello house. Please there is a mistake about my date of birth on my WAEC cert. and I will need it to apply for UK study permit in June/July. What do you think I can do. How long does it take WAEC to correct a mistake on certificate |

Mehn,you should have corrected this a long time ago.the process takes as short as 3months and as long as 6months(if examination is in progress). Go to your school and collect a referral letter which you will use to apply for the certificate change.Attach photocopy of birth certificate as well as defective WAEC certificate,and submit at WAEC,Ogba,Lagos. It costs a charge of N5,000. Aint no way the British embassy is gonna accept documents with conflicting DOB's.Even a typographical error in your full names is enough to disqualify you. 1 Like 1 Share |

Why don't you just make a new passport corresponding to the DOB on your waec certificate. Don't bother about you celebrating your birthdays, ask Nigerian footballers how they cope with that 1 Like |

@poster: i advice u to just start immediately. i also had the same problem, thot i could attach an affidavit until i wanted to apply for students visa last year. if u wanna make september start dis yr, i advice u to go to your school, get a letter to that effect, go to WAEC office wit N5000, the letter from ur school and your original birth certificate. i'll advice u to also get a photocopy of the school photo album where ur picture is and get the principal to certify it as true copy, if possible, scan and save on a flash cos WAEC will tell u they dont have your picture on their system again, It happened to me, i have submitted all these things since June last year, i now got a call again that they dont av my pix on their system so i had to go to my sec skool early this january. all the best o, and God's favor cos its a veryyyy looooooonnnnnnggggggg process. 2 Likes |

Re: Visa Application: Mistake On Waec Certificate by aieromon(m): 7:10pm On May 25, 2016 |
teekay213: WAEC has stopped issuance of new certificates as a result of entry errors. The best they can do is provide you with a letter notifying the public of the mistake and the correct entry. |
Re: Visa Application: Mistake On Waec Certificate by teekay213(m): 9:02pm On May 25, 2016 |
aieromon:thanks for the reply,where can i get and how do i go about the notification letter? |
Re: Visa Application: Mistake On Waec Certificate by aieromon(m): 9:05pm On May 25, 2016 |
teekay213: Go to any state WAEC office,they will guide you better. |
