Have you ever used any other name question

I have always answered no to this question since I applied for study permit in 2023. My surname after marriage is in official documents except on my degree certificate which bears my maiden surname. Should I answer this question with a yes now since the certificate is part of what I am submitting?

Answer yes. A maiden name counts as “another name,” even if it’s only on your degree. Just list it and include your marriage certificate so the officer can link both names. It’s better to disclose than risk confusion later.

Thanks. This was what I did
