Plz Help:temporary instruction permit(MI) - Problem with Birth Certificate
I am in Farmington Hills, Michigan. Applied for temporary
instruction permit at LIVONIA AREA SUPER!CENTER,
Secretary of State office.
I had lost my original birth certificate, applied again and got one from India (Chennai Corporation). Its a computerized copy on thin low quality paper, the corporation issues these days (instead of hand-written ones on thick green
paper).
The officer refused to take it, saying it's a xerox copy. I explained her that it's a computerized copy and the seal/signs are original, but she said it cannot be verified.
Then I tried in another office, where they raised the same problem. Also they said my name in birth certificate should be exactly same as in passport. Currently I have initials in my birth certificate, which is expanded in passport.
Name in passport:
Surname: Korapattu Rama Chandran
First name: Mahesh Chandran
Name in birth certificate:
K. R. Mahesh Chandran
1. Can't I use birth certificates reissued by the concerned authorities themselves (which is the case here).
2. How to deal the initial expansion issue.
