Another thing! While submitting the form for PR card renewal, do not select “LEGAL NAME CHANGE”. You are not legally changing your name, just splitting it.
@manu.yoganand I got my updated passport with the name split and was proceeding with the PR card application. However I do not see any normal option apart from legal name change to be selected in the document checklist. Not able to attach screenshots here, have uploaded the screenshots and here are the links:

if you remember how you proceeded with it.

You need to apply for renewal of PR card. Other declaration/letter that you would attach would support the renewal. DO NOT TICK ON LEGAL NAME CHANGE.
Ensure to attach copies of old passport and new passport. With a highlighter mark the place where new passport has old passport no.

Yup I was thinking the same of sending without checking that box. Thank you once again!
I'll explain the situation well in the cover letter/ declaration.

Hi, did you get your name split in Indian passport recently? Did you have to provide BLS a legal name change document or news paper ads. When I see the passport renewal checklist, it says I need to provide them supporting documents. Thanks.

Not recently, was few years ago. Didn’t have to provide any of that to BLS, simply a letter.

Thanks, not sure if they have recently changed the name split requirements. The checklist on BLS website is different from what I saw last year.

I got it done in May, attached two pieces of ID - Aadhaar and DL with the application and a letter explaining that name was wrongly printed and its split in all documents in India.

Another question regarding passport renewal. Do we need to provide our Current Canadian address as printable address on passport or we just keep our Indian address.

You will have to provide current Canadian address to be printed along with an address proof.

Hello All,
I have an Indian Passport and wanna change my Name and Address on it. To do this, I need to make an "Affidavit" and advertise my name change in 2 newspapers (One in Toronto and One in India).
My question is:
1. Where can I make an Affidavit in Toronto?
2. What newspaper would be best for the name change Ad in Toronto ?
Thank you in advance!
