My Given name is split into Given name and other name in CoS

Post by anil365 » Sun Jul 28, 2013 11:54 pm

Hi Friends,
In the Certificate of sponsorship issued by my company.

Given name is split into Given name and other name

My Given Name is Anil Kumar(in passport)

but in the CoS

Given Name: Anil
Other name: Kumar


So the company has added a sponsor note saying

that the Given name should read Anil Kumar and the other name field should be ignored.

Can you please let me know Is this OK (or) not.
I am applying in person for Tier 2 General.
Thanks in advance.

This will be fine. The 'family name' field on the CoS is mandatory, so they'd have to have filled it with something anyway.

"Other name" is for, like, a professional alias such as a stage name.
