Hello,
I have a question about Indian passport surrender application. I changed my last name in Canada and new name is on Canadian passport. Now the question is, when I fill online surrender application, should I use my new last name or previous last name?

Your help is much appreciated.
Thank you
Kamal

I could be wrong but I believe new last name as per the Canadian passport should be used but somewhere on the application form you have to mention that if you ever had a previous last name.
You may to include as part of the supporting documents the name change documents that was received by the provincial govt

Hello all
I have a question and might be a stupid question regarding the online application to surrender my passport so I created that online application on 30th June 2023 and was planning to submit it on Monday but some guest came to see me and I got busy and now I am planning to go on Tuesday 11th July so the question is do I need to create a new application or the old one will suffice with the package.
It will be a great help.
Thanks
Jas

Did I just make a mistake posting the question for you to make fun of me man and there are some other people here too asking questions and do you make fun of everyone and the point of this thread is to help people not to make fun of them
