Anyone asking for name change in the citizenship process can let me know if the name change in the ECAS (Do you need to input your new name to check your status)
Can somebody share the timeline for legal name changing/citizenship application.
I am here close to 12 months no test invite. Ontario applicant/Hamilton. THANKS

Hi, I changed my first name and took my husbands last name, when I got the PR they only changed my first name and kept my last name. It took about 4 months for my PR to be renewed, I don’t think it’s a coincidence that they made a mistake in both of our PR’s I haven’t submitted a reissue, it’s the Mississauga office.

Nawal, how did you advise CIC for your name change for a citizenship file? Through the web form? If yes, did you do it AFTER you received a new PR card in a new name. Thank you in advance.
