Citizenship Immigration Canada and Rebecca Patterson

Canada: Her father mixed up her May 6 birthdate with her brother's, who was born on May 4, according to CBC. The error was never corrected and remains on her citizenship file to this day. Rebecca Patterson arrived in Canada from Scotland as a three-year-old girl in 1966. Citizenship and Immigration Canada told Patterson in a letter that because it didn't make the original error, it won't correct it. She used that document as her proof of permanent residence, and showed it whenever she returned to Canada from outside of the country. "And the weirdest part is, when we landed and my dad mixed up the dates, he had initially written it in pen. Patterson has lived with her brother birth date on her record of landing for decades.
