I have a problem of name. I have two names first name AAAA last name BBBB. Both my names are same in my all documents educational as well as ID card / Passport.
Now the problem is that my father name is has spelling mistakes as well as full name error but thats interesting as well.
My father name in my ID/Passport is ( Abu Bakar Fatani)
My father name in my educational docs is (Aboo Baker) only.
My father name in his Passport is (Aboo Baker Fatani).
So now I have the problem I dont want to change my father name in any of my documents because it is a looong and hectic process in my country and I know that I dont have the power to do that. I have heard people saying about affidavits but my questions are
1. Can I make affidavit alone without needing my father in it? (But there is no problem in my name)
Yes, you can make an affidavit stating that your fathers name is different in your education records and your passport. However, it refers to the same person.
2. If my father makes an affidavit how will he make it and how can it help me because I am applying not my father?
If your father makes an affidavit, he can simply state that his name one one document is xxx and other is yyyy, but both the documents are his. He can attatch the documents as a part of the affidavit. But, your affidavit would be sufficient and if IRCC has an issue with your affidavit, they can ask for more documents and that is when you can ask your father to make an affidavit.
3. As I am not changing my names looking for an affidavit only so do I still have to choose the option that I have used different names?
No, your name is the same, but it is your father's name that is different. So you have been known as AAA, BBB. so your answer will be NO.
Please help legalfalcon
