Hello guys, I have a couple of questions regarding the online citizenship application. I will be really glad if I get your valued answer from your own experience.

1 - The application portal asked to list all addresses and employment and education history during the entire 5-year eligibility period.

My 5 year eligibility period started on October 11, 2018. Do I have to list my living address and employment history exactly from the date of October 11, 2018, the date when my eligibility period started?

Both my housing contract and employment contract started 4 months earlier than my eligibility period started. In that case, is it okay to write the actual dates which started earlier than the eligibility period started.

2 - Portal asked “Do you currently, or have you ever held immigration or citizenship status in a country or territory other than Canada (this includes your country of birth)”

I am still a citizen of the country of my birth. The portal asked to write the date when my citizenship status obtained or effective from. I was born in that country, and I automatically gained citizenship at birth. In that case, do I need to write my date of birth as the date when my citizenship status obtained or effective from?

Many many thanks for your time.
