Hi,
I am filling out the citizenship application and have some queries.
1. I did a soft landing in early 2020 and left Canada the next day. However, I moved back to Canada permanently a few years later.
In the citizenship application under the Physical Presence section, it's asking for history from the past 5 years. I’m not sure if I should include my actual 2020 entry and exit, since it was a little more than 5 years ago from today's date.
When I try to add it in the old physical presence calculator, it gives an error saying to only enter dates within the 5-year window. What’s the correct approach here?
2. I also worked remotely for a company where the entire team is virtual and there is no physical office as such. But on the tax form, they have a registered address. So, should I enter my home address or the company address in the tax form?
3. I worked for a few months, and after that, I became a full-time homemaker (focused on parenting). During this period, I also did some volunteer work.
For the citizenship application, should I write a letter of explanation for this gap in employment? And is it okay to list "homemaker" as my occupation during that time?
