    Nickname, maiden name, alias, etc.

    Thanks amikety. But I think the name that goes there as the answer should've at least been registered somewhere (like people's nicknames that sometimes show up in their passports); does it make sense? Otherwise, what would be the point of even mentioning it from the applicant's point of view...

    Nickname, maiden name, alias, etc.

    I'm gonna apply sponsorship PR for my wife, but we don't know what to answer "Have you ever used any other name (nickname, maiden name, alias, etc.)?" for her. This is because she has a name that is informally used between family and friends but never been registered anywhere. However, that's...

    Dear All, I'm a Canadian PR, and work here full-time in Canada. I'm gonna get married back in my country in three months, and would like to apply Canadian visa for my wife, but not exactly sure how. One approach is to apply for her immigration through my sponsorship, but a time estimate for...

    Mom's Visitor Visa Rejected 2 Times

    I came to Canada to study in 2005, and became PR in 2009. I have two older sisters, one is a US citizen, married, living in the US, the other one came to Canada to study in 2011, single. My parents are back home (Iran). They haven´t been out of Iran for the past 25 years, and hadn´t ever tried...
