Hi all, my spouse is sponsoring me for PR. I am an American who has not lived in Canada aside from a few months' visit to my Canadian spouse. I did previously have an open work permit under working holiday. The visa was activated but then I didn't actually utilize it for working and just visited Canada as a visitor while it was active. It's been expired for a few years now.

The application says to include previous work visas if I live in Canada... but I don't. For not living in Canada, it just says to include passport pages with stamps... but I do have the stamp for the work permit. But I don't want to include the old work permit and confuse them since I didn't actually live in Canada after activating it? Lol?

What's best practice here? Just fill things out as normal as outland and upload it in case?
