Re: birth date

The discrepancy between his birth certificate and passport may cause a problem, so either get it fixed, or be ready to explain why it differs -- it would be best to include affidavits in support of one or the other, as well as the reasons behind the error. I would get this fixed right away. I presume the date on the birth certificate is correct; therefore, you can use it to prove there is an error on the passport. Good luck!
