Hi,

Here in Sri Lanka some of us have two surnames (Family names) one in the beginning and the other in last.

So let's say my name is AAA BBB CCC. Both AAA and CCC can be called as " Surname" even though more traditional way is to consider CCC as the surname. Without thinking much when I applied the passport I entered surname as AAA.

So now in my passport Surname: AAA
first names: BBB CCC
So the name read as : BBB CCC AAA

In my birth certificate, educational certificates and all other documents is says : AAA BBB CCC

In my PR application also it mentioned as surname: CCC
first names: AAA BBB
So the name read as AAA BBB CCC

Will that be a problem in the process?

If so, any idea how to solve this?

Thanks in advance.
