In addition to assisting in reviewing the applications, drafting forms, and providing required notarizations on a pro bono basis, we also cover incidental expenses for those applicants who may have financial constraints.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We note that changing one&#8217;s passport or IRCC documents requires first a Provincial name change application. Each Province has their own process, requiring different forms, with different requirements on the requirements of police background checks, and eligibility for fee waivers. Many Provinces do not publicly post their Indigenous name reclamation process and require Applicants to reach out to obtain information about the procedure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We recently discussed this initiative with CBA National Magazine <a href=\"https:\/\/nationalmagazine.ca\/en-ca\/articles\/law\/access-to-justice\/2021\/reclaiming-their-names \">https:\/\/nationalmagazine.ca\/en-ca\/articles\/law\/access-to-justice\/2021\/reclaiming-their-names <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Please email <strong><a href=\"mailto:info@heronlaw.ca\">info@heronlaw.ca<\/a><\/strong> to set up a consultation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thank you, <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Heron Law Team<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We are serving clients across Canada, assisting with bo [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[427],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v16.8 -
