Hi Everyone

I am confuedc with approaching Question 5. Listing all names I have had.

My family name at birth was changed when I was 12. Since then I have the same name. All my docs (education, professional, PR) has same new family name.

How do I fill question 5- shall I still need to mention name at birth and then a new family name Ihave since age 12. I never mentioned this in PR application as I always believed that for all practical purposes I have same new name.

If I have to mention name at birth as well then what kind of documentation do I need to provide. I have some scattered documents but nothing comprehensive as my dad did it.

Thank you.
