No. Only if your change your country of residence, you have to inform IRCC. Also, you do not need to change the address in your passport.

Thank you...
I have one more query.
I have shown FD as POF. Now my FD has matured and credited to my bank account. Do I need to inform IRCC in this case?

Hello @legalfalcon and @caipsnotes ,

After getting PR card in Canada,

1) What's the process if the PR card holder legally changes name? Does the name in Pr Card have to be updated?

2) Does the name have to updated in Indian passport also?

3) If the name change is done in Canada, does it still have to be updated in Indian passport and is this to be done at Indian embassy?

Kindly share your invaluable inputs. Thank you very much.

No you do not have to inform IRCC. You can keep the funds in your account, or make a new FD. If ever, IRCC asks for a revised PoF, you can provide the copy of the matured FD, funds transfer to your account, and the current status of the funds.

All IRCC needs to see is that you have maintained the funds.

If you legally change your name, all your official documents have to reflect the name change.

1. Yes, your name change has to be reflected in your Passport, PR card and all official identity documents.

2. Yes.

3. Yes. Until you become a Canadian citizen, your Indian passport is your official identity documents. You cannot travel with a passport and a PR card that have different details. For the name change in your Indian passport you will need the following:

• For change in name – Two original advertisements regarding change in name in two daily leading newspapers one in Canada and the other in India – circulated in area of your permanent address in India and present address in Canada + 2 Govt issued IDs in the desired name.
• Sworn Notarized Affidavit by the applicant mentioning about change in name.
• Original landing record / immigration paper with a photocopy.
• The Consulate shall inform the applicant in case any additional document is required.

See https://cgivancouver.gov.in/pages.php?id=22

For Canada:

All the details are available at https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/canadian-passports/change-name.html

Here are some resources

I legally changed my name. How do I update my PR card?
You need to apply for a new PR card to change the name on your card. Make sure you include documents that support the change.

Not required. Only if the person who signed the reference letter or contact information on your reference letter is changing, you have to inform IRCC so that they are aware in case they decide to contact your employer for verification.

Hi @legalfalcon ,
I hope you are doing well. Today I have received my minor daughter's new passport request from IRCC because old passport is going to expire in the coming months. My question is can we know my application status(Eligibility, Criminality, and Security completed) based on this request. Thanks in advance! My AOR is on July 1, 2020.

It is very difficult to gauge the exact stage just by a communication for an updated document form IRCC.

Most most, when an updated documents is requested, it is during the final stage, i.e. after all processing has been finalised and the application is ready for a decision. This is purely based on anecdotal evidence. During the final stage IRCC will review all documents to make sure that they are valid. The documents usually are passports, medicals, PCCs etc.

However, given that your AoR is July 2020, it seems too quick. Send a webform and inquire or request your GCMS notes. They will give you a much better and clearer picture.
