Hi everyone,

I hope you are all doing well. I recently applied for a NICOP for my son, who is almost 3.5 months old, via the executive service on the PakID application. When I received the card, it had the wrong date of birth, with a difference of only three days.

I tried to modify the NICOP on PakID, but it requires a liveness check, and every time I attempt to take a photo, it is not accepted. I requested that my father in Pakistan visit NADRA, and they said the error could be fixed upon arrival in Pakistan; they said the same thing when I registered an online complaint. Now they are saying I can travel with this NICOP despite the incorrect date of birth. I am traveling next month, and because their app is so poor, I am unable to modify it. Should I travel with this NICOP and explain the mistake? I uploaded his foreign passport and birth certificate with the application, but they still made the error.

Regardless, should I travel with NICOP or apply for a visa? I started applying for the visa now, but their website is not accepting his post office photo that meets passport standards.

Any advice would be appreciated.
