Hello experts,

I recently received a P2 where it asks me to upload the PR card photo for me and my spouse.
I noticed that my name is in all caps instead of just the first letter caps e.g. "ABCD" instead of "Abcd" but my spouse's name is fine i.e. only the first letter is capital for her. In my P1 letter, my name is correct i.e. only the first letter capital.
Is that a system glitch? would it appear like that on the PR card? do i need to contact IRCC on this and if so then what is it fastest way to get it resolved?

Thanks

In my case in the portal only the Family name was in caps the first name and last name were in sentence case, for everyone else in the family all names were in sentence case finally the PR care it was sentence case for everyone. Don't worry too much it should be ok CAPS or sentence case shouldn't matter. IRCC is very inconsistent with systems and processes.

Thank you for your reply. In my case, my first and last name are both in caps but for my spouse it's in title case as it should be. In my P1 email letter, my name was correctly in the title case.
So its nothing to worry about? I don't have to contact IRCC for that?

I had a conversation with them and TBH i don't feel like they are helpful as they don't know most answers and just ask to wait or leave a web form
