Dear Members,
I have had call from passport office today. I had my given name Man***** Kaur on indian passport with no surname.
Now in approval email I have Man**** xxx, I am not sure why Kaur is missing. Is this a error as it suppose to be Man**** Kaur on british passport.
Thank you for your time

Neither are we sure why, however you can contact HMPO to correct this if your supplied documents carry all the names as it should reflect.

I would wait until you receive the passport and see what it says. Did they send you supporting documents back? You can't re send them if they still have them.

No supporting documents received yet. You are right, we have to wait.

I suggest you start filing away all correspondence and write notes if you speak on the phone with them, if this keeps protracting in time you can raise a complaint and a log of all that happened may come in handy.

One advisor told me that he has raised an official observation and I took screen shot of the online chat. I am guessing that they have Man***** Kaur XXX on the main passport and under observation "Man****** Kaur" I hope this is the case and I do not need to do anything
