Hey,
I emailed my mp last week Monday and I followed up with him today and just got to find out so I assume it takes about a week. I also ordered notes on Friday to get an idea what's going on but I'm assuming it will come in a month. Thanks I hope we don't have to wait too long also, but according to the 2014 forum July applicants are doing interview now :(

Hi Viddyra,

Did your MP advised you right away or you had to wait for sometime?

I think if you do have interview. It will beneficial as you would be able to explain your relationship face to face. Hope you don't have to wait too long.

Regards,

Thank you RK-004.

My wife gave her medical exam with her existing passport, and also applied for her police clearance certificate.

If I have her apply to change it on passport, do they issue a new passport with new number? or the same passport number with a name change?
Is that all about changing my wife's last name that it requires just changing it on the passport?


Thank you again.


New Passport will be issued with new Serial Number.
Although Last name is not necessary to be changed but if you want to change then you can.
If your Passport is changed then you may need to notify CIC for Update of new Passport number and change of last name.

Best Of Luck
 
Alternatively, if I can wait till my wife gets her PR with the existing passport and land here, and then if I want to have her name changed here in Canada, is it a too cumbersome process?

I live in Alberta by the way.

Thank you Garry2008.

You can verify with CIC regarding Name Change it should not be large process.
Here is one thread that may help you.

Yes you should do mp enquiry. It can shed some light into the long frustrating wait.
