One of my middle names on the passport and my education credentials is hyphenated like that: "Abd-El-Motteleb". But the TRF issued for my IELTS exam wrote it as "Abd El Motteleb" without the hyphens, even though I wrote it with the hyphens when i sat for the exam!! I
When I sat for the test, I did not use my passport though, I used my national ID card (which had my name in Arabic). However, I wrote my middle name hyphenated.

When I contacted idp, they said they issue them without hyphens and it should work ok. And when I told them that my sister's TRF had the hyphens in it, they said they shouldn't have been written and that it was a mistake. But i am afraid cic would find that my name on the trf mis-matches my name on my WES report and my passport...

Did anybody have the same problem? Did cic reject an application due to this error?
