Hi all!
So, I have a Canadian PR card and soon I am going to my home country for a few months.
In those few months I am planning on changing my last name (from father's to mother's). This is a process I could not do from Canada, I have to be in my home country for it.
Then I will receive a new passport with my new surname, but my PR card would still have my old surname.
My question is this, would I be able to return to Canada with that PR card? What kind of proof of name change would they ask for? Would showing them my old passport be enough?
Thank you for anyone who can help!
