I have a question. In my home country passport I don't have a middle name. The name is (as an example) first name: Alex, Last name: Smith. But in my driver's licence and health card there is a middle name (it was too long so everywhere is a short version something like: Middle name: Emmanue (last letter is missing).
I will have my oath this Wednesday. Everywhere in Canadian citizenship papers they send me my name appears: Alex Emmanue Smith (But when I was applying for citizenship I didn't put my middle name and they were fine with it).
If on my certificate I will have this version can I drop the middle name right there on the ceremony? Or when applying for passport just don't put it in the application?
Got my certificate with a middle name. And they said that they can't drop it. The only hope is when I'll apply for the passport I ask them to drop the middle name as cic says:
For a passport issued using the adult general passport application:
the name is normally the same as that appearing on the proof of Canadian citizenship (certificate of birth in Canada or certificate of Canadian citizenship). you may request that not all your given names be used in your passport, or that names be inverted, as long as your supporting identity document contains the name you would like to appear. In addition, the names listed on identity documents must be identical to the ones you want in your passport, and in the same order.
Can I use my home country passport as a supporting identity document? If not can I use a donor card or a credit card?
I already bought a ticket and I didn't put my middle name. Could it possibly cause problems if my canadian passport will have a middle name?
That is odd, I just went and got all 3 middles names after my first given name removed from my first Canadian passport application, since I have a driver's license that didn't use them. So although my Canadian Citizenship certificate had all my given names as per my country's passport - the Passport Canada officer offered to just use my first and last name on the passport application!
