Update on this post:

I sent in the DS-230 packet to the NVC and it was approved, in spite of the fact my date of birth stated on my birth certificate is incorrect.

These are the steps we took:

We called the NVC five times to verify what steps we should take and supporting documents we should include in regards to the birth certificate. We pretty much followed their recommendations exactly...

First, I attempted to have my BC corrected, but to no avail. The government agency responsible just would not change my BC; however, I was able to procure a signed and sealed letter from them stating that they would not change my birth certificate and their reasons for this decision. Additionally, I included an affidavit of birth from both of my parents attesting to my correct date of birth, and stating that my government-issued BC birth date was incorrect. I also included a personal letter to the NVC describing the situation, and what additional evidence I included.

When I spoke with the NVC, they told me that the letter from the government agency, in addition to the affidavits from my parents would suffice as they generally look to the passport for the beneficiary's date of birth. (But the BC is required as further evidence, and evidence of his/her parents.)

The documentation collection for my BC was exhaustive, since my BC and the letter from the government agency had to also be translated from hindi into english. (Which we had translated by a lawyer, and attested before a First Class Magistrate.) But it was worth it! If you need more details on anything, please ask! <img src="http://www.visajourney.com/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" />

I have kind of same problem like you. Actually at the time of submission of petition I submitted my birth certificate which was incorrect. After some years at the time of adjustment of status(got married) I submitted the correct birth certificate. Now again after six year my petition is approved and at NVC for final processing It is objected by NVC that why I have submitted two birth certificate. Month and date are same only year is different. Please help me how to handle this.
