congratulations menua! did you use the current version of birth certificate(the green type)
T TFeb 21, 2026
Thank you. Yes I did!
Kwame OFeb 21, 2026
Charlie did you include secondary evidence to your birth certificate? I don’t know why me nkoaa fire I got an rfe for that
Eddie KayFeb 21, 2026
Secondary evidence? What did they say about the birth certificate?
Eddie KayFeb 21, 2026
@T T @Kwame O
T TFeb 21, 2026
@Kwame O I didn’t include any secondary evidence for birth certificate. did you check to be sure you were consistent with your DOB when filing the forms? What secondary evidence are they requesting from you?
Kwame OFeb 21, 2026
@T T I checked to make sure everything is correct and my DOB matches every document. however I got an rfe indicating that my birth certificate is late registered ( I did my birth certificate around 2015) and because of that I have to provide secondary evidence such as school records, weighing card, or baptismal certificates.
T TFeb 21, 2026
@Kwame O That’s unfortunate but mine was 2014 registered.
Eddie KayFeb 21, 2026
@Kwame O Oh I see. could it be that the adjudicator isn’t really abreast with the requirement?
Eddie KayFeb 21, 2026
Someone just mentioned that if the registration date shows that at the time you were still a minor, it should be a problem. For clarification, @T T were you a minor? how about you @Kwame O ?
Kwame OFeb 21, 2026
@Eddie Kay I’m pretty sure the adjudicator was inexperienced. now I’m back to to waiting 😞 and my FO is notoriously slow. I wasn’t a minor when i had it registered.
Eddie KayFeb 22, 2026
That could be the reason why @Kwame O . Nanso mensuro, 3b3fa!
Kwame OFeb 22, 2026
