I recently moved to canada. MY indian pp has given name and no surname.
on my landing document i have no given name and my given name is written as surname.

I would like to add a surname on my pp. can i get last name added or do i have to get a new pp or what is the procedure?
how can i get the names changed on PR card or SIN?

My recommendation is that you wait till you get your Canadian citizenship. That time you have to apply for a Canadian passport. There is a section on the application form that allows you to write in your new name ( complete name as you need ) if you so choose.

You may need to provide notarized proof of the required name.
