Hi,

We are preparing for our PR card renewal.
We are currently staying here in Canada for 1495 days since landing 2010.

As I was reviewing the procedure, I would like to know if missing a few letters in name be a case for filing the amendment of name for IMM 5292 (confirmation of landing). The given names were truncated, i do not know if it is because of space limitation in the form.

Any opinions please?

tks,

CIC truncate names where names exceed a given length (IIRC 15 characters)...if this is the case no need for the amendment

Hi chin24
I was just wondering if this caused an issue when you renewed your PR card, also when renewing did you put in your full name (not truncated ) on the PR card application form or used your truncated name as stated on your confirmation of permanent residence?
Thanks
