The IRCC at oath told that after receiving the certificates check both sides of the certificate for any errors.

If there is any errors contact them immediately. I have sent them mail, but no reply. what to do now?

Thanks

So do you see an error in your Citizenship certificate? like in DOB or name, etc?
 
@navid2014 Did you apply for CAN Passport, what is your name in that?

What is ur name on IN PP and Surrender certificate

On Canadian PP: First Name: John & Last Name: Carter

On Indian PP: First Name/Given Name: John Carter and Last Name: BLANK

On Surrender Certificate: John Carter (Full Name)

OCI (Applied): First Name: John & Last Name: Carter

Apart from you I have read someone in the forum reported about submitting all necessary proof during Oath Ceremony and Citizenship certificate was still printed with the old name.

What name did you write on the Canadian Passport application?

Which passport?

What is your name on the Citizenship certificate?

Did you do a legal name change in Canada?

I am surprised reading this thread. My father in law got Canadian Citizenship
where

OLD INDIAN PASSPORT
FAMILY NAME :
GIVEN NAME : Real Name

NEW CANADA PASSPORT
FAMILY NAME : Real Name
GIVEN NAME : XXX


INDIAN OCI CARD
FAMILY NAME : Real Name
GIVEN NAME : XXX


While applying OCI, BLS processed it and no name change certificate, or any other documents was asked.
Hi Siman,

I saw your post about your father-in-law getting an OCI approved with XXX given name. Did he ever travel to India with the OCI and face any issues?
