Mother's name different in my passport and sibling passport. How to claim points

My mother's name was changed after her marriage. She used that new name for few years but later she decided to use her original name. So there is a mismatch in my documents. In my birth certificate and school/college certificates, her name is Anita. But in my passport, her name is Santosh. Surname is same.

Also, my sister had received her PR and moved to Canada, so I am hoping to add 15 points in my CRS scores for sibling, but on her passport and birth certificate the mother's name is Anita.

On our birth certificates, Father's and Grandfather's name is same.

I am confused what to do now. Seniors please suggest.

You can find a lawyer and take an oath to prove the relationship. That document from the lawyer is sufficient for proving your relationship.

Thanks a lot. I'll contact a lawyer here. Do you know any standard format for the oath or link where I can find it? It will be helpful.

The lawyer should know it. I did mine in toronto and the lawyer's assistant told us what to bring and gave us the oath document.

I am planning to attach a "Same person" affidavit attested by Notary. My sister told that she also had to use the affidavit as the mother's name or her passport and mother's passport are also different. It worked and she got PR so I will also use the same affidavit for me.
