Thank you million times! ;)
Or you can do like me, click yes but write an explanation letter that this form is not applicable to you. And that was based on the cic call center guy's recommendation. It's up to you

This seems like the better approach.

Checking "no" probably works but if the applicant lived abroad at all during the preceding five years, "no" is contrary to the facts. Any suggestion to respond contrary to the facts always makes me wince. Even if reporting indicates there is no problem.

Hopefully this will be one of the items fixed in a new version of the application . . . coming soon?????

Hi,

I would be applying for my Citizenship this month, am just waiting for my police clearance from my home country. Aside from the required documents in the document checklist.
Did any of you include employment letter, proof of physical address e.g rental agreement etc... The reason am asking is some of the these questions were asked in the Form CIT002, that is to give more details in the form. Do i need to include these to backup my application. thanks

I will be applying for citizenship too by end of the month, waiting for my police clearance.

I feel (others can comment) - if you include Driving license for "PhotoCopy of Personal Identification" - it covers the "address proof" aspect of your question.

For employment, there is an option to click in CIT002 for providing CIC "consent" to contact and procure information from CRA reg taxes directly. Also, they are asking to provide reference(contact) information for all employment held. Hence i do not think Employment letter is required.

According to the check list - you fill Residence Outside of Canada form (CIT 0177) only in the following condition. If that does apply to you i feel you do not have to fill CIT 0177.

Quote from Instruction guide: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/guides/CIT0002ETOC.asp#Step4

There are very rare circumstances that will let you count time outside of Canada towards your physical presence calculation. If you resided outside of Canada because either:

  • you
  • your Canadian citizen or permanent resident spouse or common law partner
  • permanent resident parent
was employed outside Canada (not as a locally engaged person) in or with:

  • the Canadian Armed Forces
  • the federal public administration
  • the public service of a province or territory
Complete the Residence Outside of Canada form (CIT 0177) and submit any supporting documents requested in that form with your application.
This seems like the better approach.
