"Current country of residence" question on IMM 0008

[SponsoringMyHubby]

Hello all,
I am sponsoring my husband's application for Permanent Residency. He has lived in Canada since October 2008. We have been in a relationship for four years and got married in March 2013. During the time he has been in Canada, he has had Visitor status, Skills Worker Status and sometimes no status. He currently has Visitor status. On the Generic Application Form For Canada (IMM 0008), #10, Current country of residence, what do we put as the "From" date? Is that
A) the date he FIRST arrived in Canada, or
B) the date when his current status (Visitor) started?

Many thanks!

Based on the information, it will be the date he FIRST entered Canada.

I found this in the guide: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/step-by-step.asp

Question 10

From the list, select the appropriate information to indicate:
•The name of your current country of residence. Your country of residence is the country in which you are residing, provided that you have been lawfully admitted to that country.

•Your immigration status in that country (indicate one of the following): ◦Citizen
◦Permanent resident

◦Other
◦Refugee Claimant

•Other: This section must be completed if you selected "Other" as a status.
•The dates (From – To) you have been living in your current country of residence.
