Lesson 2 - Test of Authenticity and Credibility

(formerly National Statistics Office) and discuss its (1) competence and impartiality in
telling the truth, (2) willingness in telling the truth and (3) adequacy of data that it conveys.

What other sources do you have at home do you think you can corroborate with your birth
certificate? What corroboration did you establish?
My school transcripts, school ID, national ID, and QCitizen ID are the other sources

this assertion, I was able to confirm the validity of the information contained in my
birth certificate.
