Hi everyone,
Thank you for your great advises in this forum.
I need your advice regarding my application for my kids citizenship.
I am PR as my wife and kids since July,2002.
I am applying for my wife and kids for the citizenship. and I get confused about the question 9 in minors application. They asked me if the child left Canada for more than 6 months since they got the PR status. Actually yes they left the country for three years between 2007 till 2010.Then they back and reserve their PR status
My question : Should I write the whole absence ( close to Three years !! which I afraid that it may cause delay and questioning on my kids application ) or I have to declare only five years period 9 similar to adult application?

the second question : if the answer for question 1 will be yes, should I declare all absence even absence of few weeks or only the absence of 6 months or more ?

Thank you

Zainzain

1. Yes, if you don't and CIC finds out (very good chance of that) then it will cause even further delays and could result in refusal
2. All absences must be declared.
