Not including Travel history and personal address

[veri]

I still doubt that somebody got rejected because of not mentioning 1-week trip. None of the people I know mentioned trips and overlaping activities and none of the got rejected. Your friend must have done something bad, otherwise it is highly weird.

It is not necessarily the length of the trip but rather the misrepresentation of facts or lying. e.g claiming to be in one place when you were in fact in another or not disclosing it.

Hi I was wondering..what about my case...If it is possible to detect if a different passport is used...My current passport which I have used to come to Canada is not the same that I have used for going to Korea..My current passport is a completely new one... any comment..

[veri]

SenoritaBella: I understand that. But for example, I was a full-time university student for 5 years. During these years, I went for student`s Work and Travel program. I included it in my personal history but my consultant decided to change it so that there are not overlaping periods and she simply put Student 2003 - 2007 and excluded these summer US programs as unimportant. I had no idea, I had no chance to find out. She just filled it again after my signature without letting me know as explained it was not important. I guess she knows what she`s doing? Anyway, I have a proof in my email I sent her my history including these TRIPS. What can I do if she just does this after my signature???

 @ Veri... like someone already mentioned, it is after the fact now. Sit tight and try not to worry about it, for it may not even be a big deal. In the future, do not sign blank forms again. The 2 guys who got in trouble have a different situation from yours.

 @ Deep123, it is possible that your old passport is linked to your new one. The only way to know for sure is to check with your home gov't.

Hey guys I also wanna join in the present discussion. My situation is like this:

I came to Canada in 2008 on study visa.How do i write in " from - to, length, purpose, destination. i have been living in toronto from 4 yars. how should i mention the length, from -to??

In 2009 I got USA b1/b2 visa and I travelled many times to USA from Toronto.

In 2011 I travelled to India via USA. I travelled from Toronto-USA-Doha- India. How shud I mention about the connecting flights ?? For example I had to travel to Los Angeles. I traveled from Toronto to Philadelphia and the Philadelphia to LA. Should I mention all. Or just LA, USA would be fine??

Please clear the question 1 as it is the starter.




Thanks

HI SenoritaBella
My current passport is a brand new one with no reference of my previous passport. With my current passport I have travel to Canada only. No other countries. I have used this passport only for all my applications submitted for Canadian visa applications. I just checked that after coming canada i have renewed my study permit once and after graduation I applied for post grad work permit. In both application there is no such question regarding my previous stay. So, I did not lie anything in any application submitted inside Canada. The  time I did not include my Korean stay is that when I applied for my first study permit from home country and renewed it after one year.

 @ Deep123.... I guess it depends the type of passport you have. If yours is not machine readable, then there may be no connection to your old one. Mine is the machine readable type, so with the right type of light, an officer can read information.

 @ Spartan, if you came in 2008, check your passport, it will have a date stamp.

"from" = date stamped in passport when you first entered Canada to study
"length" = 4 years
"purpose" = obtained admission to study at univeristy of xyz
"destination" = Toronto
"to" = present
For your multiple trips to USA in 2009, "from" = toronto, "to" = final destination in USA. You were still studying when you obtained this b1/b2 visa, so your dates will overlap and that is fine. Lists all the trips you took from Toronto to USA, no need to mention connecting flights, just your final destination. So e.g. "toronto - India" and "Toronto - LA, USA". Hope this helps.

Hi I have one more question...
the first time I applied for Canadian study permit is in 2007, then renew my TRV visa  in 2010, and then in 2011. the first two was in my homecountry and last one was in USA.
I was wondering does the visa officer have access to all the application information that I have provided in my paper application, as I was wondering they have returned the main application form along with the passport after issuing the visa.

Actually, I am thinking of including my Korean stay in my travel history for my CEC PR application ..the only worry is that if they go back in the system and check with my previous visa application made outside Canada and match the travel history I mentioned at that time..
