Dear All,

The order of my names on the PR card is interchanged.

It is like xxx yyy zzz to zzz xxx yyy. Would that be a big deal ?

Need your comments pls ?

Family name ( Surname ) will appear first then first name followed by other name which could be abbreviated if necessary.
 
Thanks really for your reply. So, you mean it doesn't create any problem, because I have seen my freind's card in order of First name Middle name Family name.

Both formats are valid. The family name can be first or last. There is no problem if the three names are tallied with your passport.

If, however, your name is misspelled, call the Citizenship and Immigration Canada PR Card Call Centre at 1-888-242-2100 and they will mail you a form to correct the mistake.
