I just recently paid biometric and visa fee. I received a payment letter and further "Biometric Instruction Letter" and on that the applicant name is written multiple times e.g "Dear Ahmed Iqbal Ahmed Iqbal" instead it should be written only once. Would it create any issue later? if yes tell me solution of how to change the name. Please help me out I don't want any delays in my visa processing time.

Hmm, that shouldn't happen. Did you fill out your own forms or did someone else do it for you? Are you certain your forms were correctly filled?

If this is the letter you received from IRCC (it will have a Canadian flag on the top left, and the letter will be IMM5756-XXXX), then I think you should check your GCKey account to make sure your name is correctly entered.

How did you apply? Paper or Online?

I just reviewed my imm5257 form and I made a mistake in writing name. I entered full name in both "Family Name:" and "Given Name:" section which is why I got that issue. Now my documents have been submitted and the biometric along with visa fee has been paid. Is there any way to make changes in it ?

You need to email and ask or raise a CSE via the IRCC webform and submit a new IMM5257. The one you submitted is obviously incorrect.
