Hello dksu21,
I hope you don't mind, here's another follow-up questions:
2. Regarding the SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION (form IMM 5549), does it has to be completed both by the principal applicant (me) and my husband too? Do I need to make a single entry for each country I've visited or is it okay to consolidate the places for each period & fill up like this example : May 2008 - June 2008/ tourism / France, Italy, Germany, Spain
Alternatively, do I need to include specific place for each country for each period? i hope someone can enlighten me on this one as I have been into 15 countries for the past 10 years

and I just want to fill it up in the most appropriate/accurate manner.
Ans. Anyone above 18 should fill this form and you should mentioned your each visit or stay in countries during 10 years starting with most recent information. That will be much better and easier if you will go according to you passport entries. Comments: Yes, I have noted all my passport entries/exit; I am just a bit confused how the list should be done. Please see below
example and advice w/c entry is correct,

B?
