Renewal Question

Hello,
This is my first time renewing with this new way via the Portal. Kindly let me know if you are able to help answer my questions below. Thank you!!!


Questions:
1. I've been living in Canada for the last 37 years. Do I still need to provide evidence of this i.e. Notice of Assessments or Bank Statements such as indicating a deposit from a Government Funded Program? In the instruction manual, it almost indicates you need to provide proof of this only if you have been living in Canada LESS than 5 years.


2. All trips outside of Canada have been day trips within the last 5 years. How is this indicated on the chart? I answered YES to have you spent time outside of Canada. But when it comes to indicating this on the chart, it only allows me to write a "to" and "from" date with different dates, even though I visited another country and returned the same day. No overnight trips were taken. All trips have been land border crossing shopping trips.

Thank you for any help/advice!
