Re: Delays in first passport for child born overseas
Thanks for your response. The issue is that since there are no computerised records of the original certificate, getting a new one will be more like registering the birth all over again, therefore reason for a new registration date. I'm worried it might complicate issues at the passport office.

Not sure what's going on with this post, it doesn't have any content. When you're responding to somebody, please just hit the 'quote' button but then don't delete any of the text that it inputs for you, otherwise it doesn't make sense. You can then add your response below the quoted section of text and when you press 'post' it will be clearer.
Thx.

Re: Delays in first passport for child born overseas
Hi BritInParis, just received my daughter's passport today after 10 weeks. Application was received by the hmpo on 29th Oct 2018.
Thanks a lot. After your advice regarding the inconsistency in the birth certificates, I decided to obtain a verification letter directly from the national population commission in Nigeria that confirms my daughter's date of birth and that I am the mother. I believe this kinda sped things up a bit as I was contacted to book an interview the day after the letter was received by the hmpo.
Interview date: Dec 7 2018
Passport receipt : Jan 8 2019
