How to explain Abscence from Canada: landed as a PR, then returned to my home country

[elizaveta052010]

Hello! Please advise how to better explain my absence/time outside of Canada in my citizenship application? In 2018 I flew to Canada, landed and got my PR status, spent 2 weeks here and returned home. After 7 months I eventually relocated to Canada completely.
Should I put “return to my home country” against these dates when I was out of Canada?

Just select "tourism".

This is not a big deal.

Just say "to finish the employment contract", "to preapre family for the move" etc whatever applies to you.

'Children finishing school year' was one of my reasons.
