Anecdote (Score:2)
I have a friend who ended up with a birth date a year and a half from his real date: he comes from Iran, and applied for political refugee status in France. The people who gave him his papers messed up the year conversion between the Muslim and the Georgian calendar (they used the difference for the wrong part of the year) so he first aged a whole year. Later they refused to accept his birth certificate as valid, so they moved his birth date to January 0th of that (wrong!) year...
