They do say immigration or citizenship status.
Work permit or student visa neither immigration nor citizenship status.

Incorrect

Tell us if you have had immigration, permanent resident status and/or citizenship in any other country outside of Canada, including your country of birth.

  • Check either yes or no.
  • If you check yes, complete the chart in question 13.
  • Tell us which countries you have held status in, and exactly what status you held or currently hold (student, employment/worker, refugee/protected person, permanent resident or citizen).

CIC should consult English dictionary before they comply forms.

ha ha good one, may be the english can be improved and made more comprehendible in the application guide.

Only thing which matters is Canadian Citizenship Act... Oxford dictionary.. hmm really does not! :)

Back to the question, you will have to list all immigration status you ever had.. like citizenship, permanent resident, refugee, student or work.

Before we crusade against CIC, its better to follow their guide than challenging their oxford English skills.

basically if you were in a country as a student/worker/resident etc.... you would list those dates.

So for you (from Nepal):

You would also list

Nepal --- Citizen --- Birth date (under date obtained) --- Current

I think there is no need to list non immigrant visa (student, employment etc)

Imagine a scenario--> Any Country Citizen with a US green card is a student in the USA , then may be that should be entered on point 13-- as US green card is considered to be a Legal Permanent resident which is an immigrant status but student , employment and visitor are all non immigrant Visas--Visa definition for F1, H1B also states they are non immigrant visas only (I guess so that should be same for UK too)

I may be wrong though--but these are my 2 cents
