Change the information on your secure status card
You can change the personal information on your secure status card at any time.
Fill out the same form as when first applying for a secure status card and check "Changes to personal information" under "Reason for application" or include the changes to your personal information when first applying for a secure status card or for a renewal.
To change the name on your secure status card, you must submit:
- an original legal name-linking document, such as a change of name certificate, marriage certificate or divorce order, that links the previous name with the current name
or
- a copy of a legal name-linking document and valid acceptable identification with the name that is on the application form
To change the gender designation on your secure status card, select:
- M (male)
or
- F (female)
or
- X (another gender)
The gender designation selected on the form doesn't need to match the gender designation on the documents you need to submit with the application.
To change the First Nation you're affiliated to on your secure status card, contact any regional office.
You can make more than one change to your personal information at the same time.
