birth certificate
my birth certificate has an error. In the place of surname both my first name and surname are written together and place of first name is blank. Submitted my application including the birth certificate with that error and got a letter requesting for a birth certificate.
Could someone please explain what is it that i should do as i have already submitted the birth certificate. Do i submit the same birth certificate or should i correct the error. Originally from Central Africa
Thanks everyone
