2013-05 to 2014-04 doing Y

The months are different as doing X starts on the first day of May.

I filled it the same way as your example. Got AOR.

If the months don't overlap, that's the correct way to write it.

No that's not a gap. Quite often people have one contract ending on the last day of one month and the other contract starting on the first day of the next month. So this is the correct way to fill in in your case.

A gap means that a month is missing.

Dear seniors
I was filling the physical residency calculator form for number of days outside Canada: can you please guide for the scenario below:
I left Canada on 13th January 2013 to do my rotation in USA, but had to go back to India from USA (family emergency) on 3rd March 2013 , and returned back to Canada on 21st May 2013. Does this require only one entry in the residency calculator:

2013-01-13(Date left Canada) to 20013-05-21 (Date of Return to Canada) location as USA and India both : Reason rotation and Family emergency

or
2013-01-13(day left Canada) to Date of return to Cananda(Never returned until 2013-05-21) For Rotation a

2013-03-03(day left USA) to 2013-05-21 (return to canada from India)

Please advise, Ist option looks more genuine to me but will they do their own separation of number of days in each country (India and USA) on their own? as first option does add up days in both USA and India

I returned back to Canada on 2013-05-21 from India
There is a huge yellow box in the physical presence calculator that says:
If you visited more than one country during the same absence, list the first country in 'Destination' and list the other countries in the 'Reason' field.

So that means you need one single entry for a trip.

Think of it like this: Any date that you list in the calculator (from or to) must be a day that you were physically on Canadian soil. You were not on Canadian soil on 2013-03-03. So it can't be a FROM or TO date of your absence.
