My name is incorrect on my old passport.?

Well theyll want to know why your name is printed wrong and why you didnt contact the passport office to change it, because its your responsibility to check all details are correct, so expect these questions its only natural theyd be asked. I think theyll want to see the passport with the correct name, as you say the error is in an old passport I presume that you have a new one. I dont think they will want any other documents because emigration is all about the passport to confirm you are who you say you are but you have a new passport with the right information printed no? So the original is likely to be wanted, maybe include a letter explaining. I havent personally ever encountered this exact situation its a new one for me, I dont know your circumstances and how this passport thing came about. I dont have any context to work with so if I knew more then I could answer better.I advise contact CIC because its ultimately them that want the passport, Only other thing I can say is send both passports in and write a letter enclosed with the passports explaining the discrepancy, they can then contact you for more information if they need it once they receive the documents and letter or ring CIC first and explain what I just said to do, that way you havent already sent them in and you can find out what they want you to do first rather than waste time sending that lot in without first ringing them up.
