Should I raise a CSE

[Lyra]

Hello all,

MY AOR date is 25 th August and stage is IP1. I am a resident of USA. Yesterday, I realized that I missed specifying a travel in my travel history section. It was not actually a travel, what happened was, while travelling from my home country to US, I had a layover in London but flight from my origin to London got delayed and I missed the connecting flight. The next flight to my destination was on the next morning, since this was airline's fault they offered a stay in hotel in London, where I spent an 8 hour night before boarding my next flight. I have a stamp on my passport that clearly says 'transit 24 hours'. I didn't mention this single day transit entry in my application. Will this be a problem?

Can they straightaway reject the application for such a small error?

Should I raise a CSE or wait hoping that CIC would not mind this mistake or even if they see it, they would communicate to me and I can explain them at that time? I am in two minds, on one hand I don't want to raise an unnecessary CSE and on other hand I am thinking better to be safe than sorry and should raise it.

Any help on this would be appreciated. @legalfalcon and other senior members please chime in.

Thank you very much.

It's a layover not travel.

Thanks for your reply. It is kind of a layover but I left the airport and stayed in a nearby hotel for around 8 hours.

Not a problem and no need to worry about it. This is not a ground for rejection. There are many applicants who have very extensive travel history, and they forget a lot of details. It does not lead to any rejection.

Rejection for misrepresentation is only for material facts, facts that are not material, don't matter.
