Hi Seniors,

I have only one name on my passport. I entered My name as Last name (same as my passport) and First Name Not applicable.

Now in Post ITA its showing my name in all questions as Not applicable plus full Name is this correct?

Thanks in Advance.

you should have left first name as blank and only put your last name as per passport. See section in this link http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/helpcentre/questions-answers-by-topic.asp?st=4.2 which refers to family names,given names but principle is same.

Lol.. Looks like someone at CIC took your first name literally.
I don't think it should be a big deal to get it corrected.
For people who go by just the first name (like me), CIC asks to leave first name blank and put our names in family name.
I think second name is mandatory in their database system.
