My age on passport and ID with birth certificate?

Question

my dad(who has passed away years age) changed my age 2 years older than I actually am.Now I am studying in Australia,with a passport and an ID in my home country China that both says I am 2 years older than I am .

Because my parents changed my age so I can go to school earlier(The required age is 7 in my home country),and they changed it when I was so little,the ONLY proof is my birth certificate that says I am actually 2 years younger.

I am devastated by this!I want my real age back!So if I hand out my birth certificate can I change my age on my passport and ID back?

Please help! i HAVEN'T Slept at all last night when I heard this.

P.S. I am 19,but on passport I am 21.

Answer 1

You would have to return to both where the passport originated and your place of birth to get that sorted out.  In your case, they are one in the same.  So, you would have to return back to China and talk to Customs.  Pose your situation to them, be sure that you are not putting on the aura of mischief or acting in a way which seems to point to identity theft or fraud of any kind.  Tell them the entire story, and then ask what it is you can do to get your legal age changed back to 19 instead of 21.
