Need urgent help:CEC: Wife's name different on Passport & birth certificate

[chacks]

Hi All, I need urgent help/info. Any help is much appreciated. I am in the verge of CEC application & I am the primary applicant. I am an Indian. I need a calcification on my wife's details. My wife's Surname is different in birth certificate/10th marks sheet and passport. She applied for passport after marriage so the surname on the passport is different from her birth certificate. Now I want to know is it ok to submit her birth certificate & passport copy (though surname is different in birth certificate and passport) for CEC application?. Is there any afidevit needs to get it?. Please advise on this asap.
Also, please advise, I want to put my wife's name as per passport. please let me know what else I need to do to make this happen.

i suggest u use what is on your wife's passport, but you have to declare it on the background information form where they ask: have you used any other name (e.g. nickname, maiden name, alias, etc)? you don't have to worry (as in my case) about any affidavit as you have to submit a copy of marriage certificate, passport, and birth certificate. Good luck. Hope this help.

Hi Decentgurl,
I have kind of same problem. I don't have last name on my documents and i applied cec with my first name only and for the question" have you ever used other name" i answered NO. After i applied, i find out that during an incident, my family name was used. That family name is not official but someone suggest me that i had to inform about it.Is it possible, i can change the answer after I get my AOR. That is the only stress i have regarding my application. Please suggest something.

Can you elaborate more on your last name being unofficial and why you did not put your last name on your application?
I do not want to sound ignorant and would like to understand your situation better.

AFAIK, you have to mention the surname as it appears in the passport, in the application form, next to the surname, it does ask for "other name(s) used", there, you should mention the surname as mentioned in the birth certificate.

I have applied like this and there is no issues with that (though I have only received AOR, but have done OWP-S in the past)

You can use the same birth certificate and passport - no issues.

In the CEC Application form IMM-0008-ENU, Q2 - Have you ever used any other name (e.g., nick name, maiden name, alias etc)?

Select Yes, and write her first name and old last name. That would do.

So here, what it is.
My name is sumit gill. But on my academic certificate, passport and all official documents, my name is sumit. I don't have any last name. But my friends and relatives knows that i have family name gill. But it is not used on any of my documents. During an accident, when my friend reported incident, he notified my name as sumit gill.
Now, i went for police clearance for my job purposes, they said there was a incident said that gill was used as my last name. On that clearance document, they filled gill under the question " othet last name used. They didn't filled any last name. But they stated that other family name used was gill.
But on my cec application, i didn't put any other name.

Hi - I am having the same issue, could you guys please suggest if any other document is required here?
Or i would have to just mention wife's name in the CEC Application form IMM-0008-ENU, Q2 - Have you ever used any other name (e.g., nick name, maiden name, alias etc)?

your Reply will be highly Appreciated.

Thanks

Hi

This should be simple; your current married name is your current name and is being used on passports. By default it will be different from your Birth Certificate as you change your name when you marry, this is common in most cultures. The current (Married) name should be that used on the application.

As others have highlighted, in the CEC Application form IMM-0008-ENU, Q2 which asks have you ever used any other name (e.g., nick name, maiden name, alias etc)? You should select yes, here you write any other names you have used since Birth!

For the specific question regards fathers place of birth, you need to put in the place of birth that is on the official Birth Certificate. CIC will pick-up on any discrepancy where documents do not tie up to the application forms. This may delay the process.

For the person with only one name, what does your Birth Certificate state as your name?

A
