When you submitted your application to IRCC Mississauga......in these forms IMM5669, IMM0008, IMM1344.....the Family Name had be be filled as exactly as is in your Travel Passport.......and the PR visa will be issued with the Full Name in your application.Please i have a quick question, I have already submitted my application,aor1 was received on February.
I submitted my application with international passport bearing my father's name.
And now I am doing a new international passport with my husband's name. My question is do I need to notify cic about my new passport and if I do so, would my PR card be issued with my father's name which is the old passport or my husband's name which is in the new passport.
As my file is being transferred since April to Accra, do I need to tell them also. Please i need an answer, thanks
Now you have a new international travel passport with your husband's name.........and i guess you may have to applied to change your surname from Maiden to Your Husband Surname..........so if you want your PR visa to be issued with your new Surname (i.e., Your Husband Surname).........you need to send the data page of your new travel passport to Acrra VO and inform Accra VO of your change of Surname.
To inform Accra VO of your change of surname.........will advice you do the following;
- Send a copy of the data page of your new travel passport through IRCC Webform to Accra VO.
- Send a copy of the Affidavit Document for Change of Surname if available through IRCC Webform to Accra VO.
- Update your Surname in your Schedule A form - IMM5669 and send through IRCC Webform to Accra VO (note: signature is not required for IMM5669, just need to type your name...also, state the name change in the form in your note to AVO).
- If you had you Surname published in a Newspaper, it will be nice to send a hard copy to Accra VO (note: this is not mandatory, but just a nice way to show public acknowledgement of your marriage and change of surname, and may help support proof of marriage).
IRCC Webform.....
