Renewing PR Card online - but it's asking for a common law stat?

[takemeaway]

Hello -I have 2 questions regarding applying for a PR card renewal online.

1. It's asking if I traveled overseas accompanying a Canadian citizen. I did. But I only spent 100 days outside Canada in the past 5 years. Do I click "NO" to this question? Why do they make everything so difficult. I overthink these things because if I click "NO" will it be misrepresentation? If I click "YES" I have to provide his information and include him in the travel history when it doesn't even matter for eligibility. UGH!

2. They are asking for a common-law statutory declaration for the online application. I am in a common-law relationship but why is this relevant? It doesn't ask for one in the document checklist. Do I still have to provide one?


Thank you.

1. I would click no, it's not a material thing so don't even think about the misrepresentation aspect.
2. I don't think this is relevant if you put no as answer to first. But not certain.
