Thanks Scylla.. I tired calling but could not get through..i reckon this is for the people living inside Canada..i have a query for which i wanted to contact them.. i tried asking experts around but they cannot assist much..Not sure if you can help, but your suggestions might guide me make to right decision...

I am dependent and I worked onboard ship for 7 odd months.. during this time I did not land in any country...I have departure & arrival stamps on my passport which I need to account for.... I am confused on what should I say as country in "Travel History" section...I am also worried that system will prompt me to upload a PCC as the duration was more than 6 months... I don't think this will require any PCC as I was in international waters... Do you have any suggestions/ideas on how to tackle this situation....

Should I write "On-board Ship" in countries traveled and attach an LOE?
 
Territory of the shp is usually under jurisdiction of the flag state (the country were the ship is registered).

Apologies if i wasnt clear...this was back in 2007 and for 7 months and my first job...i have been working on land since...i already applied for PCC and will receive in due time...

Will I need any clearance for these 7 months from ship? I have character certificates issued while i was onboard....
