Name mismatch in degree certificates?

Post by neha khera » Wed May 13, 2009 1:20 am

My name in the bachelors degree certificate and masters degree certificate is different. Please let me know what is the supporting document/proof I would require in order to show that both the certificates are mine and they are authentic.

I had the same issue when I changed spelling of my surname. In my case spelling in academic certificates differs from passport. I provided self-attested letter(stamped by Indian High Comission London).
If you are in India or some other country, you can provide a self-attested letter (notarised by UK BHC authorised notary) along with your application.

By the way your name is different in your Degree certificates?

I am not sure about the letter from the BHC. Better search in the forum. It is a good idea to call your local BHC and ask them about the format(if any). Also note the date-time of call,name of the agent you spoke to and mention the name in your coovering letter along with the document/letter to support the document.
