name is wrongly entered.

decree.

procedure.
Right
Procedure To Change Date of Birth in NADRA ID Card:
The right procedure is that
you need to file a plaint in civil court. This plant contains all the fact that
you were born on that date. The date in union council birth certificate
is that. The date of birth in NADRA b.form is that. The date of birth in
matriculation degree is that.
You have to attach the above
document in order to strengthen your claim.
The procedure is still the
same, if you want to change the father’s name in NADRA CNIC.
When you will submit your case
in court, they will issue summons to NADRA authority to appear on the next date
and submit their written statement.
On the next date when counsel
from NADRA appears before the court and submit a reply. The court will again
give you the next date on which NADRA counsel will examine and cross-examine
the plaintiff.
At the time of
cross-examination, you must have all your documents with you.
When the cross-examined is
over the court will pronounce its judgment. The court will also give direction
to the NADRA authority to change the date of birth of the plaintiff.
That how you get your remedy
in a short time. This whole procedure takes up to 3 or 4 months.
