Issuance of birth certificate

Dear Sir,

I have a situation with my birth date. My parents didn't use the Chennai Corporation issued birth certificate for my school admission to facilitate my admission into the school a year earlier than later. Chennai Corporation registered my birth as Aug-02-87 which I can still see in their website but my school, college, passport, aadhar, voter, licenseVisa etc. etc., everything has Jul-26-87 as my birth date.

At this point, I have an immediate need of submitting my birth certificate, which I don't have, for immigration purposes with Canadian govt. I don't have an opportunity to change my birth date in all my documents as I am sure it will take years to get them corrected. All my life I had used my tenth mark sheet in place of birth certificate but the immigration process definitely needs my birth certificate.

Is there a way to prove the corporation that I was born on Jul26 and my birth was unregistered at that time so I can get one now? If yes,

1) What is the procedure?

2) Which kind of lawyer do I need to work with?

3) How long can the process take?

Looking forward to your advice, Thanks in advance.

It depends upon the rules.Court orders could be obtained for correct date of birth.by filing affidavit. If a provision for obtaining the same with Revenue Authorities, you can do so by contacting the Tehsil of your area.
