ORIGINAL POSTER
Hi everyone, I have a couple of questions as I plan to apply starting next month:

•My last name includes an accent mark (tilde). Should I keep it exactly as in my passport? When I scan the document, the system doesn’t seem to recognize the accent.

•I have a middle name, but the scanner splits it into two separate names, while in my passport it appears together as one.

I tried checking other posts on this, but I’m still not completely sure about the correct approach.

Thanks in advance for your help!

I tried applying for DTV on the official website today. I’ve a hyphenated name. Unfortunately it doesn’t accept the hyphen. So I’ve just typed in my name without the hyphen. Would this be a problem? Your input would be much appreciated. Thank you!
