hello

we are in post ita phase and are gathering docs. we are filling the form and under personal history we have this question in travel history section:

Has "myname", and if applicable, "myname" family members taken any trips outside their country of origin or of residence in the last ten years (or since their 18th birthday if this was less than ten years ago). Include all trips: tourism, business, training, etc.

i am 33 years old. do i have to fill travel details in relation to my Dubai travel which i did in 2003 and 2004 when i was 20 years old? this was after my 18th birthday

please tell because if i dont fill up Dubai details since they were more than 10 years ago then i guess the system will not ask me to upload police certificate for Dubai

thanks

From what I'm reading, it's clear that you understand what you're reading. To answer your question, no, it's not okay to withhold or falsify information.

Source link: IRCC - Document Fraud (Misrepresentation)
If you lie on an application or in an interview with an IRCC officer, this is also fraud. It is a crime.
If you send false documents or information, we’ll refuse your application. We could also:
  • forbid you from entering Canada for at least five years
  • give you a permanent record of fraud with us
  • take away your status as a permanent resident or Canadian citizen
  • have you charged with a crime or
  • remove you from Canada

Hi there,

Apologies if my question wasnt clear earlier. What i meant to ask is simply this:

The CIC form asks me to enter my places of travel for the last 10 years, or since my 18th birthday if less than 10 years ago. Please advise which of these two am I to write if I am currently 33 years old? I think i just have to fill in the last 10 years and not since my 18th birthday but would like someone to confirm that what Im thinking is right- since I do not want to miss anything out. :)

Many thanks

You need to mention travels only for last 10 years in your case. However, you need Police Certificate for all the countries where you spent more than 6 months cumulatively (even through multiple trips), since you turned 18 years.

So in short,
Travel History - Last 10 years
Personal History - Last 10 years
Police Certificate - Since you turned 18 years old.

I hope this clears your doubt.

hi there

I do need one clarification. please tell me how to deal with this.

in my personal and travel history, I am not mentioning my Dubai travel since it was back in 2003 and I am only mentioning last 10 years because I am 33 years old. so do I still need to upload Dubai police certificate despite the fact that I have not even mentioned Dubai travel at all anywhere in the application?

please tell me

please tell me
2017-10=2007 so, yes you have to mention every trips untill 2007.
But you need police certificate from every country, from your 18th birthday, where you spent at least 6 months.
Remelem jo utatok volt, es minden rendben van veletek! Legyen nagyon szep hetvegetek!(even if it was not continuous. for example: if you went to a country for 1 month only, but 6 times, then you need a police certificate also.)
