WASHINGTON — Rep. Ilhan Omar’s staff helped get her birthdate changed in public records once the Minnesota Democrat was elected to Congress in 2018, a switch that has since spurred frenzied accusations that she misrepresented her age to secure US citizenship.

The alteration could offer a big clue as to what federal immigration agents were searching for when they raided her DC home Monday: If the congresswoman is actually one year older than she’s claimed to be, that would mean she couldn’t have legally become a US citizen in 2000, critics contend.

Omar’s birthdate had been listed in the Minnesota Legislative Reference Library as Oct. 4, 1981, as well as on reference sites such as Wikipedia and in media outlets like the BBC, for the entire time she served in the state House and for several months into her congressional term.

After years of investigation, the Justice Department appears to be intensifying a criminal inquiry into the immigration history of Ilhan Omar, a Minnesota Democrat, and her family.

Factcheck:

In May 2019, staffers for Representative Ilhan Omar contacted the Minnesota Legislative Reference Library to update her official legislative biography, changing her birth year from 1981 to 1982.

The update drew scrutiny from political opponents and local media, who highlighted it amid ongoing questions about her family’s background, past immigration records, and naturalization timeline after arriving in the U.S. as refugees from Somalia.
