yeah surely you have to tell all information because the examiner also know your name by checking your documents ,so why then it is necessary to tell your name and it is the best way to fill your timing .

Hi Soni,

Didn't I answer your question here? http://www.ieltsnetwork.com/viewtopic.p ... 2541#p2573

You need to answer the examiner's question completely. If they ask you "where are you from", answering "I'm from Mumbai" would be fine. However, if they ask "what country are you from", "India" would be the required answer.

Good luck,
Ryan
