For year 2011, I think your physical presence calculator should show as zero. This is due to long absence from Canada in year 2011 after landing given that it does not come in last 4 years of 6.

The calculation is correct, the requirement is to be physically present in Canada for at least 1460 days in the six (6) years immediately before you apply, 4 days that I spent in Canada in 2011 falls within 6 years of the application date.

What I meant was that you can't count it towards total physical presence days. Year 2011 for you is not meeting 183 days of year criteria and not eligible as one of 4 years out of last six years. You are better to show it as zero and still have enough buffer over 1460 days anyway.
I suggest this due to 12 days presence in year 2012. That means, there is long gap between year 2011 and 2012 and 4 days in year 2011 is better not shown in calculation.

Seniors in forum may suggest you better.

Seniors in forum may suggest may suggest as second opinion.

I got your point. I'm counting 1460 days from 2013 when I moved permanently and I'm leaving the days I spent in 2011 and 2012 as buffer.

Seniors any advise please ?

Since you have printed the residency calculator, and its showed you you are eligible to apply for citizenship, then go for it and apply especially you kept a buffer of almost a month more than the required 1460 days.

Received US travel history from CBP, All the entries and exits were recorded correctly. Only thing is there were 2 outbound entries recorded for some reason on 1/30/2013 and 1/31/2013. I actually exited from US on 1/30/2013 but dropped the I-94 with the Airlines counter while boarding the flight. I'm thinking CBP might have entered the outbound record on 1/31/2013 based on I-94. Anyone had similar issue ?

I'm still waiting for Canadian entry/exit records from CBSA.
