All of the following applies when changes are made to a participant's personal identifiable information:
●When a participant legally changes their identity due to violence or abuse and is known to AZTECS under a former identity, see Identity Change-Violence or Abuse.
●When a participant changes their name to a mononym or a single name, all of the following applies:
The participant must provide verification of the legal name change.
Key "NONE" in the GIVEN NAME (OR INITIAL) field and the mononym in the SURNAME field.
When possible, advise the participant how mail from FAA would appear with none as the given name and ask the participant whether they would prefer something else as the given name.
NOTE Do not key titles in the first name field, such as MR. Mr., MRS., Mrs., or MS.
●AZTECS issues an alert for all other cases in which the participant has involvement.
