Hi

I have a question on name change or dropping a part of given name.

My name is AAAA Kumar BBBB. Its a Indian name and is kind of middle name but when i moved to canada it became part of my given name because my indian passport has AAAA Kumar as given name.

I got my citizenship certificate on this name i.e AAAA Kumar BBBB. My provincial driving licence has AAAA BBBB and other documents have AAAA Kumar BBBB.

Now i want to apply canadian passport, My preference for name is AAAA BBBB and drop Kumar from it, should i apply with AAAA Kumar BBBB or AAAA BBBB. I have driving licence to prove i use AAAA BBBB as my name.

http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/passport/apply/name-change.asp

As per the link above, would it be considered a legal name change or just dropping a given name.

Thank you in advance everyone.

I've been informed today by IRCC center that my security clearance has passed the check and that I am ready for the test invitation!

She also informed me that nothing will be semt to me before I receive my ATIP. As per her, any ATIP request put the application on hold untel the request is closed!!
Not sure about the above statement but wanted to share it with you !!

I just took the test this morning and had a short interview. I was handed the oath ceremony invitation right there, for the next Thursday. This is a little faster than I expected. Instant "DM"
