Hi everyone,

As a student, I lived most of the time in the UK while keeping my permanent residence address in France. How should I enter my residence history in the system? Resident in the UK for 9 months (except for the summer, in France)? Or just all France?

Similarly, my permanent residency was in Switzerland for 2 years, but I spent nearly 3 months in Austria. Is that a long enough period to be consider Austria as my residence despite still having a flat and official residence in Switzerland?

I also worked in Ghana and Burkina Faso, for trips from one to 5 months at a time. The company was based in Africa, but my permanent residence was in France. What should I do?

CIC asks for travel history too - I don't want them to wonder why I said I was a resident in France if I stayed a certain period of time in another country.

Thank you
 
You can keep a permenant residence while visiting places on vacation, but if you were working or studying abroad you must have lived there, so put those address'.
