Hi,
I would like to request people who have the same problem. It happened due to the reason that my Indian passport has my whole name written in surname column and nothing in "given name" column. Now when I will apply for passport, the name will again appear in surname column. Should I get it corrected or keep using the same even in my passport. If I keep as it is, will I be facing problems while using my passport outside Canada. I have been facing problems everywhere PR, DL, MSP. If anybody can suggest way out, it will be highly appreciated.

If you are already facing problems, it will only make it worst in the future. In my openion I would suggest you get that corrected so you don't have any future issues.

It's difficult to predict which issues you will face in other countries, yet it would be reasonable to correct this mistake (even if you have never had problems with this before).
