My name in passport is as below.
Surname - Goda Gamage
Given Names - Sahan Niroshan Piyathilaka

But in all of my other documents (degree certificates, marriage certificate, bank accounts..) my name is stated as "Goda Gamage Sahan Niroshan Piyathilaka"

Will this be an issue for the PR process?
Should I submit an affidavit to WES/ITA or should I alter my passport?

Please help.
Thanks in advance!
 
Mention your name as shown in passport for IELTS/WES and EE profile
 
You will have to submit an affidavit along with your application when you submit all documents once you get the ITA, during EE profile creation no documents are to be submitted.

Hi,
@mjawarani Thanks for your information.
One more thing, as per the passport (Surname - Goda Gamage
Given Names - Sahan Niroshan Piyathilaka) how will my name read ?

Is it "Sahan Niroshan Piyathilaka Goda Gamage" ?
 
Thanks again.
Getting an alteration in my passport is also possible because I have not yet created accounts for IELTS/WES.
Will changing the passport have any other effects?
 
no but its better not to alter, thats your main identity. You can make an affidavit saying all these are your names and its very common.
