Completing the Individual Change of Name form

SECTION A – CLIENT INFORMATION

Enter the New Client Name. This is the new legal name you want to appear in the Land Registry.

Note: S. 10 of The Land Titles Regulations, 2001 provides that an individual is to hold title in their given name, middle name, if any, and family name. Given name is their first name as it appears on their birth certificate unless legally changed. If a person has a middle name it is to be used as well as their last name. An individual should not use shortened versions (Alex for Alexander) or an alias (Tracy Kimberley Smith goes by Kim Smith) for Land Registry purposes.

OPTIONAL - Check the appropriate Generation Indicator if applicable.
This is used if this is part of your legal birth name or to distinguish between two individuals in the Land Registry with identical names.

• Example: three men in a family such as a grandfather, father and son all have the same name John William Smith, so they indicate John William Smith I, John William Smith II, and John William Smith III.
• Or a mother and daughter have the same name of Jane Lynn Klassen so the mother indicates Jane Lynn Klassen Senior and the daughter indicates Jane Lynn Klassen Junior.)

SECTION B – OTHER CLIENT NUMBERS

List the Client Number(s) and Existing Client Name(s) that you wish to change to the New Client Name indicated in Section A. Enter the Client Number(s) and the Client Name that corresponds with that Client Number exactly as it currently exists in the Land Registry.

Ensure that the Client Name corresponds with that Client Number exactly as it currently exists in the Land Registry. If the Client Name and Client Number do not match those in the Land Registry, the application will be rejected.
