Hi,

I have a doubt regarding my TRV application form. My passport has my complete name as my first name, whereas my Family name is blank

The cic instructions at
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/guides/5256ETOC.asp

mention that :

Full name
Type your family name (surname) exactly as shown on your passport or travel document (even if the name is misspelled). Do not use initials.

Note: If you do not have a family name on your passport or travel document, enter all your given names here and leave the given name field blank.

Type all of your given names (first, second, or more) exactly as shown on your passport or travel document (even if the name is misspelled). Do not use initials.

Note: If you do not have a given name on your passport or travel document, leave this field blank. Do not enter “*”, “Not applicable” or “NA”.

. Does that mean that I still have to mention my first name in the Family name column and leave the Given Name field blank?

1. Yes, that is exactly what it says.
