CIC Online system not accepting my last 10 years of address history ... Why !?

[ahmadka]

Hi guys, I'm having a problem I can't figure out. I received my ITA a while back and was currently filling out the full PR application form. I've entered my address history for the last 10 years, however the CIC website isn't accepting it. When I click on 'Check for Completeness', it still says:

"Error Description: Address history:
You must provide at least 10 continuous years of history from the date of client's 18th birthday."

However I've already done that:

At first the dates were not connected from the ends (i.e. start date of next address is the day AFTER I ended living at the previous address), but I have even tried connecting the start/end dates, but still its the same :/

Advice ?

Make the start date the day after the end date for each row

Already done that. All dates are already overlapping, except for one date each in the start and end rows.

check it, the screen shot you posted, you are in Pakistan the same day you are in United States

I wish I could travel with such speed between continents

Okay, so you're saying if I vacated an address on 24th, the next start date should be 25th, right ?

I had it that way before, but it was still giving this error (this is mentioned in OP too), so I tried overlapping the dates.

 

[Mrs Aj]

Yes, the start dates should be:
row 4 from top 2009/8/11
row 2 from top 2011/5/3
row 1 from top 2015/8/25

also confirm when you turned 18 please, coz it is either from when you turned 18 or the last ten years, whichever is more recent

I have reverted the change, and now it looks how it was before. No overlapping dates, however I still get the same error:

Also, the address history starts from 17th July 2005, and I was 19 years old at that time.

 

[Mrs Aj]

ok, log out and log back in again.

 

[ahmadka]

Tried that, doesn't help.

How old are you? Looks like your age is < 28, that is why the system is keep on asking you that enter details from your 18th birthday, rather than last 10 years..

Also, trying putting up the start dates from 1/1/2005..

This doesn't make sense, but I've figured out what's causing the issue. I tried adding another dummy address which ENDS on 16th July 2005 (one day prior to the start date of the oldest real address in my address history). For start date, I tried different inputs. Turns out if the start date is 28th February 2005, Check for Correctness passes. However if the start date is 1st March 2005, the same check fails. So basically the website wants address history which starts by 28th february 2005 at the latest.

The above doesn't make any sense though. My DOB is 13 January 1986, and I turned 18 on 13th January 2004. I am currently 29 years old and I started this Express Entry thing in July/August this year. So going back 10 years means that I should only have to enter address history from July/August 2005 till now, which I'm already doing. So I don't know why the website wants data which is even older than that.

??? :-X :-\ :'(

If you have an address for the date, give the system what it wants so you can move on

Problem is, in that short span of time I lived at two different addresses, and I don't remember their addresses even. One of them was actually living at a hotel kind of a thing (for about a month), while I was looking for some real accommodation :/

But I still would like to know why does CIC only say they want 10 years of history, when they actually want more ? Maybe it's just some website glitch which they're not familiar with :/
