Ilhan Omar's official birthday is October 4, 1982. But the ages she gives in her own memoir don't line up with it.

She says she was "thirty years old" in 2011, then calls herself a "31-year-old" in February 2014.

She had a "ten-year-old mind" in early 1992, but was "seven" in a chapter covering 1982–88.

I went through every age she mentions in the book that could be tied to a specific date or dates. 3 of 11 contradict her official birthday. 2 more are questionable.

Remember: if she was 18 or older when her father naturalized in 2000, she couldn't lawfully derive citizenship through him.
