Hello friends,

I successfully completed my landing procedure at IRCC office :).

I need some clarifications, did anyone has the same scenario? My confirmation of PR document has two mistakes in it.

1) Original date of entry and Last date of entry are incorrect

The original date of entry as per CoPR is 12-Sep-2013 but I came to Canada on 29-July-2011. Similarly, my last date of entry as per CoPR is 02-Mar-2014, but it should be 29-Nov-2016.

I brought these mistakes to the CIC officer's concern. Interestingly, I have stampings for all the above-mentioned dates [29-Jul-2011(entered Canada for the very first time), 12-Sep-2013 (entered Canada from US), 02-Mar-2014 (entered Canada from my home country), 29-Nov-2016 (entered Canada from my home country)] on my passport. She looked at my stampings at passport and changed my last date of entry to 29-Nov-2016. But she didn't change original date of entry to 29-Jul-2011, she left it as 12-Sep-2013. I told her that during my masters degree on 12-Sep-2013 I went to USA to attend a conference. That date is taken as my original date of entry. For that the officer told me, while processing my application at IRCC they linked it to this date itseems. Also, she mentioned if I am considering for citizenship in future, the number of years before my PR date might be useful if the current law changes for citizenship eligibility. She also mentioned that, if the new rule gets implemented only IRCC consider the 4 years before my PR date. So 2013 to 2017 this is enough itseems.

Can you explain me what she meant about that citizen eligibility?
Do you guys think that I need to check with CIC on the original date of entry?
