@ramaineffr the form asks you to put your name as shown on passport. So I make it a point to include all the names on passport for our clients. Never assume that it’s ok because if a case officer questions it, you lose any argument you can think of but if you include everything, then you’ll be more confident you did the right thing.
I always tell my staff, dealing with the whole application process, you should never assume things. Always be by the book so you’ll never be wrong. Hope that helps.

Hello, I saw this thread and I was hoping to get some information about including my middle name in our 887 application. I just want to confirm the correct format as I am really confused about how I should put it in form 80 and form 1221. I have 2 given names. Should I put my middle name after my second given name? Thank you in advance! 🙏

Middle name usually goes in the Given Name field if the form doesn't have a separate field for it.
My US visa has my 2 given names + middle name in the Given Name field.
My AU tourist visas also has the given names + middle name but the PR one doesn't.

Based sa naaalala ko from similar discussions dito sa forum, wala talaga ang middle name sa grant? When I was granted a tourist visa, wala middle name ko dun and okay naman.
