Spelling Difference in Passport and Educational Certificates

[tux]

Does CIC pays attention to spelling difference in passport and educational certificates, and if it does is there a way to resolve it. can it be explained to them.

My problem

Name in passport : Mohammed Saif Ameen
Name in Certificates : Mohd Saif Ameen

In india MOHD is understood as short form for Mohammed, something like Chris for Christopher.

Thanks,
Ameen
