Write all the names as it appears on your passport. If you are married and are using your spouse's surname you would need to provide a marriage certificate showing the changes in your name. Sometimes when filling out forms you would sometimes notice a question if you have used any other names before and that's where your maiden name comes in or your complete name at birth.
Example name at birth
first name: Jane
Surname: Doe
Jane got married and is now using spouse's surname Smith.
So Jane can now use either Jane Smith or Jane Doe Smith. As long as Jane has a document that would support the change in her name
And please note - your'e posting this all over, but the answer might depend on context. Post in the forum that fits your case - citizenship is different than applying for PR status from abroad.
Post there once and wait before posting the same question all over.
Sorry to upset you. I just don’t want to jeopardise my application because we have different definition. I want to get a better response that’s why I tried posting before I knew I started a thread. But thanks for replying.
I'm missing my middle name from my original home country's passport through all my IRCC applications, and I have had absolutely zero issues. Even if it was pointed out during my citizenship interview, the officer shrugged it off, just asked if I had no problem with the name not appearing in my Canadian citizenship certificate/passport. I also know family friends with the same case, who dropped their middle names when they became Canadian.
