Hi All,

I have only given name (FN+MN) on my passport (On all docs- same name is mentioned as on passport). There is no last name/surname written on it as I dont have it.
Can anyone please suggest what shall I write in place of surname/last name field while creating EE profile.
I am not able to proceed further with my application.

Thanks.

As far as I know you cannot leave the surname section blank, put your full name in that section and leave the first name empty.

When you receive your ITA you can explain the reason in a LOE.

Cheers :)

As per CIC, if you do not have a family name on your passport, travel or identity document, enter all your given name(s) in the surname field and leave the given name field blank. Do not enter “*”, “Not applicable” or “NA”.
