Name Check, Name Pattern

[pratham]

Heard, It takes longer if you have common names such as Mohammad or Patel
Or John Smith. Is this true?

 

[always_in_labor]

Change your lastname to Patel, you will get GC on arrival.

 

[pratham]

yes, if you get visa at first place

 

[Bomber]

A name being common has nothing to do with delays in name check.

there could be only 2 persons with name xyz . one of them could be a known criminal and the other one could be an innocent Gc applicant. his name matches that of a known criminal and he is subject to detailed name check causing delays in approval...

there could be 1 million persons with name abc and none of them is a known criminal. names of all of them will be cleared relatively quickly

 

[rir_or]

Or you could be from Russia and some other countries. You may have a name George W. Bush, it won't help you.
