Address and Work History

Questions about Permanent Residency
1

Hello,

I’m trying to fill out my application form for PR card renewal.

I was under the impression that I have to account to my whereabouts/activities for the past 5 years preceding my application and that there should be no gaps at all.

I was outside the country for a few times and also has had so many different jobs.

I would just like some help with regards to filling out information that CIC would deem relevant and pertinent.

In the Address History, do I have to include a specific address where I stayed during the months that I was outside Canada?

And because I’ve also worked as a short-term live-in caregiver within the 5-year period for few families, should my employers’ addresses be included as well for those months that I stayed with them?

As for Work History, I also did some jobs through temp-work agencies, and there were more than a few times that I was asked to work for just one day or two. Do I also have to include these in my work history?

I’m hoping you could shed some light on these.

Thank you very much.

Hi,

I traveled twice to the US during my eligibility period, 2 days in Las Vegas and 5 days in San Jose California.
Should I include the hotel addresses in my citizenship application Under section 10.a
