Nigerian birth cert. questions (split thread)

[Damilolly 1]

Sorry to drag up an old post but I need some help.

My BC was issued in 1977. I have a copy which I used for my application but the original is now lost and my interview is in 4 weeks.

I was born in Lagos but live in England.

What will be an acceptable replacement please?

I'm running out of time.

Thank you.

Local Government Birth Certificate is more than sufficient if you were born from 1979 to 1993. If you were not born from that time, Please i advise you to get a non avaliability of your Birth Certificate from the local govt that suppose to issue it if it is not avaliable at the time of your birth in addition with two sworn affidavits from your uncle and your parents attesting the date,month and year of your birth.

Birth Attestation is for those born within 1992 till date. They can obtained a true certified copy from the National Population in Nigeria either Lagos or Abuja. Please go the US.Department of State manual for Nigeria Birth Certificate referal for further information about the acceptable documentation to avoid getting your case being denied. Note that whatever document submitted to the US Consulate in Lagos for an interview for visa approval will be also requested for your adjustment of Status when you arrive in the US for change of staus. Please i advise you to get a proper document to be consistent in this matter. Remember that any inconsistency found in or with your application will be denied and further application will also be denied.

Nijabound I was born in 77 what shoud I do please?
