Cheers,

I'll be starting my studies in Canada starting from January 2018 and I've received my student visa in July 2017. However, recently due to personal reasons I've changed my first name with a court order and I applied for a new passport. I have a flight ticket to Canada on November 19th and I'll be carrying my old passport with a valid student visa, my new passport, the original court order, and the court order with the official translation. Would it be possible for me to enter to Canada with those documents? If not, I'd be grateful if you could advise me what to do. If necessary, I can postpone my flight ticket and do whatever necessary to do.
