Address History and Travel History after ITA - Please Advise

[wholesome.member]

Hello everyone, thank you in advance for taking the time to answer my query.

I received an Invitation to Apply under Canadian Experience Class and I see IRCC requests me to provide my address history for the last 10 years or since I turned 18.

If you have an answer to even one of the 3 questions, please don't hesitate to reply!
Let's say I landed in Canada on 21 May, 2024. That's the date my Study Permit was issued to me. Then, I proceeded to stay at my relatives' place for 1 day and then moved to a proper apartment with a lease in Canada on 22 May, 2024.

1. My question is, do I need to provide the relative's address for that 1 day stay? I'm confused because I think it's similar to you sleeping over at a friend's place for a day - your permanent address does NOT change while you are living at the friend's place for a day. So I don't know if this qualifies for being put under "Address History".
So for now, I've mentioned 22 May, 2022 as the "TO" date for my home country address, and also the "SINCE" date for my Canadian address. Please advise if this would be correct.

2. Also, let's say I turned 18 years old on 19 September, 2023 so I only have to provide address history from that point instead of past 10 years. Now, what do I mention in the "Since" field for my home country's address where I have been living since I was born on 19 September, 2005? Do I mention my birth date or the date I turned 18 which is 19 Sept, 2023 ?

3. For Travel History, after the age of 18, the only time I have "travelled" outside my country of origin is to come to Canada as a student on 21 May, 2024 and I have been living here ever since as a resident. So, I assume I can simply mention NO in my travel history? Because I have not travelled to any other country and this trip isn't really "travel" because I basically relocated here. Please advise what should I do for this.

Thank you very much again!

Hey folks, had a consulation with an RCIC and I got my answers. Noting them down here for posterity so it helps someone who may need this in the future (I hate dead end forum posts lol) -

1. Yes. I mean you could omit it, but it'll then always gnaw at you in the back of your head and still has a risk factor to it. Remember, the rule is to always overexplain than risk misrepresentation. So in this case, the best case scenario is to mention the relative's address in the address history too.

2. Again, better to provide more info than necessary than risk things. Best to go back as far as you can. The SINCE field can be the birth date in this case because it doesn't hurt to go further back than you turned 18.

3. Yes, can simply mention NO because I have only taken one international flight outside my home country and that was to come to Canada as a student and I am still living here and have not gone back even once. So this doesn't count as a "trip" or "travelling" because I basically live here now.

Hope this helps someone!
