Hi guys,
I have received ITA and completing my profile for submission. I have following query:
My passport only has my first name (surname is blank on the passport) while my degree certificates and work experience letters have my full name and surname. I have prepared an affidavit to explain this discrepancy.
While completing the profile, there is a question, "Has this person ever used any other name?"
Should I answer this as Yes? My understanding is its only valid for name changes and I haven't changed my name.

Thanks
You should answer NO and explain this in a LOE. You can get a "One and the same person" affidavit to show that the different names on various documents all belong to the same person.

Thanks for sharing people. Apparently, this is a technical issue. I have reported this issue to IRCC.
HI Raj - Could you add country of residence to the spreadsheet if available? Would be nice to know if there is a trend for certain VOs/Country of Residence etc.
Thanks for all the effort.

Hi, you can contact fingerprinting agencies in your city who deals with RCMP certificate. They take your fingerprints and send them to their agencies in Canada who digitizes your prints and applies for the certificate on your behalf.

I got mine done from http://www.internationalfingerprinting.com/

hmm interesting, my med passed yesterday, and BG Check went to "In Progress".
I checked my application status a few minutes ago, and BG check now shows Not Needed.

I did receive a ghost email last night.

Does that mean the R10 check has finished? Or they actually haven't started looking at my application.

IMO, your R10 check has passed.
