Hello People

I need a clarification on a tricky matter that I am up against, while filling up the forms for CEC. Here are the facts:-

Mother's details on her passport:
Surname: S
Given name(s): A aka B (Where A is her actual First Name and B is a name she used before her marriage)

My Passport:
Mother's Name: A S (First and Last name)

My questions:
1. On Background declaration form, what should be filled in the Given Names column under Personal details of Mother? A aka B or A
2. In Additional Family Form, what should go in the Name field under Mother? AS or AS aka B

Please suggest!

You might want to go with her legal name / her name on the passport for all the fields. But it's best if you discuss this with a professional. Maybe a lawyer!

Good luck.
