Thanks for the reply
@keypad.
I hope it can be managed in the places you have mentioned and there wont be any issue.
Just wanted to clarify this point in your reply " It was troublesome for booking my air tickets as well, every time I wanted to travel." How can it be a problem ? tickets mostly follow the passport name right. Please enlighten
Thanks
Yes, tickets follow the passport or any other travel document you will be using at that time. But, airlines also need a family name. As your passport doesn't have one, therefore your given name will be used as family name. Now, the situation gets tricky here.
- Some airlines advice to repeat the name in given name as well as family name fields.
- Some advice to use Mr. or Mrs. in your given name field and your given name will be used as family name.
- While some advice to use FNU as given name and given name as family name.
- And others advice to use LNU as family name and given name as given name.
Whenever I needed to travel, I always had to confirm this with the airlines prior to booking my tickets. I have travelled twice with Mr as my given name, ones with repeating name and ones with LNU. The problem multiplies when customer support of an airlines says something and when you reach airport to board, the person at the counter says other.
As you already have received your PR visa, you can't do anything at this moment. Just talk to airlines and after confirming with them book your tickets and land in Canada. After living here for some time, you can get your name updated if you want to.
* FNU - first name unkown
* LNU - last name unkown
