Hi Everyone

I recently got my Canadian passport and my name shows as blank under Given name and my full name Amandeep singh singh under Family name.
Does anyone else has the same name format on the Passport?
Should i keep it like this or is there need to change it? i just don’t know if i will have any problems for travelling or applying for OCI.
Anys suggestions?

How did this pass any quality control?

Going out on a limb here but this looks like an error in production of the passport and is sure to cause you problems, especially if it doesn't match other IDs you have. I'm also guessing your first name is Amandeep and Singh Singh is your middle/last name combo. If that's the case, you need to go into a passport office and get this corrected. But if you're adventurous, try booking a flight or attempt a land crossing into the US. Report back on what happens. :)
