How to fix discrepancy of names in various documents?
I am facing an issue with my father's name being inconsistent across various documents. My educational certificates mention his name as 'Mohan' (without a surname), my passport lists it as 'Mohan Daivajna' (with surname), and other documents like Aadhaar, PAN, and PF show his name as 'Mounesh Daivajna'. He is known by both names, but currently, all of his official documents carry the name 'Mounesh Daivajna'. Since changing educational certificates is quite difficult, what is the best way to resolve this discrepancy? Also, what potential problems might I face with my passport or during foreign job applications due to this mismatch, and how can I address them?
Your father should get a Gazette Notification for his correct name by submitting an affidavit and identity proofs to the Government Press for official publication. This legal document confirms his name and helps unify all records, resolving discrepancies in passport, Aadhaar, PAN, and other documents. It is widely accepted by authorities for name verification and correction purposes. For further legal assistance contact us on our helpline number.
