Good evening. Please I changed my name from Gladys Ejembi to Gladys Ene Ofuowoicho. I presented the afidavit during nysc reg. After reg, I applied for change of name and added Ene as my dashboard presented my name as Ofuowoicho Gladys. After 3 days, the request was disapproved. What is the implication? Should I proceed to camp or they won’t accept me with all the change of name?
Good morning,
Pls. How can. I apply for rearrangement of names the second time?
Please admin why did my surname change to my husbands surname on my dashboard? Even after I’ve presented the newspaper publication which is actually showing that I bare his name not his surname. My credentials carries his name not his surname. But after registering as a married woman, it automatically changed to his surname. But I don’t want that. I’ve applied for change of name by replacing his surname to his own name as my surname. Hope it won’t affect my application/ registration as a married woman still? And how long will it take for the name to reflect on my dashboard so I can print out my greencard/ callup letter?
It won’t affect you since you have applied for a change of name.
