Hello, I received my PR card and noticed that my middle name is missing. I initially had it included when I applied for PR just as it is on my passport but it looks like they didn't enter it as the middle name is neither on my copr or pr card. I called cic and was told to send an application for amendment of my Record of Landing to later on have a new PR Card issued. That's all good but the processing times is 6 months and I need to travel in 4 months. The agent told me to use my current pr Card, have my copr with me, passport and proof that I have applied for an amendment and it should be okay as cbsa will see the application for amendment on the system. Any experience with that? Any opinions? I am worried that i will have trouble boarding a plane or not being able to re-enter Canada

No issues. Would be fine if you show both passport and PR card with your boarding pass.

Check your COPR for a remarks field. Mine is an older version and, in the remarks, it shows my full name, including the middle name.
