What is total days lived?

Total days is the exact count of calendar days between birth and the as-of date, including leap days.

Can I use this for age eligibility checks?

Yes. Set the as-of date to the eligibility deadline and confirm whether the person meets the required age in years or months.

Is this age calculator free?
