A big congratulations, what did they ask for twice?

they asked me for a provincial id showing the name i wanted to appear on my citizenship certificate that is different from my original name

So, this is a timeline without any RQ. Without those two additional enquiries, it could be completed lot faster. Perhaps a saving of 4 months or more.
