Hi,

I'm currently filling the PR forms for a CEC application. I have a problem with the personal history section and I'm not sure what to do about it.

I have travelled quite a lot in the last few years, one time for a period of 5 months, visiting more than 12 countries. I need to have no gap in time and since the form only takes one country at a time, I have no choice but to enter every country I visited then. The problem is, with all these entries, plus other shorter trips and employment, I hit the 30 max entries limit much too quickly.
The website says that if I hit the limit, I need to make sure I list the most recent activity. Doing so only takes me back to 2012...
However, when I try to validate the form there is an error saying that I need at least 10 continuous years of activity...

This makes no sense and is contradictory. I'm not sure what to do about it. I'm worried that not being able to validate the form will prevent me from accessing to the next step to upload my documents.

Has anyone faced such problems ? What did you do ?

Thank you
 
Yes, in the last line put the one which captures the '10 years" and then attached a separate piece of paper with all the in-between travels as an annexure to your application, clearly indicating in your application letter that you have done this for reasons of insufficient space on the forms.

Thanks for the advice Amisnic. It worked.

Now I'm faced with another problem and I'm wondering if you happen to know what's going on with this one. The personal details form keeps erroring on my passport entry, even when I do it again from scratch, then the check for completeness and it says "Form complete", when I save and go back to the main page, it still says "In progress". Going back into the form then gives the same error...

Thank you,
Mathias
