Hey! I'm sure this is an issue with a simple solution but thought i'd ask.

I changed my surname when i was 16 so my birth certificate has a different surname to my passport. I have a document stating my name change from when I was 16, will a copy of this name change document be enough proof when submitting to CIC?

Thanks!

Yes. Make sure to also submit translations if the document is not in either English or French.
