Hey all, I have a situation I can’t find an answer to and hoped you could help.
We have been invited to apply for PR in the Healthcare Worker PNP stream. We have our application totally ready to go, except one problem.
Our oldest daughter, who is 17, was adopted by me - her stepfather - when she was 5. My wife is her biological mother. Her name changed as part of this adoption and her birth certificate states my and my wife as her parents.
prior to the adoption, at age 5, she had a different last name (would that be an alias?). Is the name change document in this case required for an adopted minor? We are being told it will take 20 weeks to receive that document from our state in the US and I cannot work in Canada until the economy recovers or we have PR - I don’t know that our family can survive that long. Thanks for any help.
