Dear Imran,

When I first decided to try for Canada, I approached IDP to register for IELTS.

My passport had my names in the wrong order
KARLOSE ARVIND JOHNSON
instead of
ARVIND JOHNSON KARLOSE

My academical certificates however had the order right.

Seeing this difference, I was advised by the counselor at the IDP office to have my Passport reissued with the correct order so that I would not face complications later on.

I am telling you this only so you know that someone has faced a similar problem as you.

The decision is yours to make of course. If you are lucky, maybe you won't face any problems. But why risk it?

You could have put "Ullah" as your middle name when applied for uni.may be thats why they didn't put it on letter.

but mohhamed could have got the mistake corrected when he recd the passport. they could have rectified it without charging any fees, if he has could prove that they did put mohhamad instead of mohhamed.
