Hello,

I am USA citizen, who is visitor in Canada and applying for PR through my canadian husband as inland sponsoring spouse. I entered Canada (visa-exempt) in June 2021 and allowed to stay here half year till December 2021. I sent application in November to extend my stay as visitor till June 2022.

Now in IMM008 what do i enter to section 10 Current country of residence?? That's what i planned:
Country : Canada (because i 'm here physically now, is it right?)
Status: Visitor
From: June 2021
To: ???? -

What do i put to "TO" section? my official half year already passed and i can't put December 2021 as this day is in the past. Do i put the end of the current month January 2022? Or do i put June 2022 as this is the date that i asked in my extension? Or i'm not resident of Canada (as visito) at all and should put USA.

And if USA, then what do i put to residential address Canada or USA?

Thank you in advance!

Your country of residence is Canada. As for the date, I'd probably put the June date, include a confirmation of receipt for the visitor extension app and maybe a short note on a separate piece of paper explaining why you put that date. But honestly I don't think it matters too much as you can always change your mind and as long as you're staying legally, you're not required to actually leave by that date.
