Hi everyone,

I changed my family name in 2007 when i was a child (court-approved). All my documents (passport, CSQ, etc.) now use the new name. My birth certificate has a note about the change.

Quebec already accepted it for my CSQ. Will IRCC have an issue with this for PR?

Thanks for any advice!

No, won't be an issue. Better if you have a copy of the court document for the change of name, of course.
