Question regarding the name(Firstname, Lastname, Given name, Family name)

[simmi06]

Hello Everyone,

I have a question regarding Individual name.
My Full name is Sharanjeet Kaur.
When I came here in Canada, I came to know that in passport, it is reflected as Last name only like (Firstname, Lastname) - , Sharanjeet Kaur. I don't use Family name
While applying for citizenship, it is advised to change the name like First name Middle name Last name like Sharanjeet Kaur Saini
I don't want to use my Family name(Saini). Can I use the name as Sharan (Firstname) jeet(Middle name) Kaur(Last name and Family name)
Kindly advise do i need to change name while applying for citizenship as it is reflected as Last name only.
Your advise will be appreciated. Thank you

You should have no problem going by your preferred name if that's the current name in your passport and PR card.
