Hi everyone,
I did my landing back in 2013 at CIC Etobicoke. While there, the officer asked me about my "original entry date" (it's one of the fields that she manually entered), and I was confused by the question. Those are my first visits to Canada.
My instinct at the time was to write down the date of my oldest stamp, so I gave her the June 2007 date as my original entry date. I didn't even remember that I visited Canada in December 2006.
Anyway, as I wait to apply for citizenship, I'm wondering if I should apply to amend this date of original entry. Is it worth amending at all? if I do, which date should I pick? 2006 (the first date of entry on the first visitor visa) or 2007 (when I came here with my study visa)?
My feeling is that it doesn't matter, but I just wanted to check here first.

- December 2006 on a visitor visa on an old passport
- June 2007 on another visitor visa on my current passport
- August 2007 on a study visa
