Hi,

I've submitted for express entry FSW-O from India back in Feb 07, 2019. Just a brief timeline below to help understand our case.

  • 22 March, 2019 : Medical Cleared
  • 23 March, 2019: Received an ADR request for form IMM 5669E for my wife, which we promptly filled and submitted in 3 days (26 March)
  • 26 April, 2019: Biometrics Completed
  • 26 July 2019: Via Ralph Goodale, and via CIC hotline: Eligibility "Recommend Pass", Criminality Pass, Background yet to be started.
  • 10 Sep, 2019: Webform received generic response from CPC-Ottawa saying file is currently in queue for review by officer.
  • 17 Sep, 2019: Filed for GCMS (received note on 12 October saying it's delayed by 90 days)
  • 25 Oct, 2019: Filed a new query for webform seeking update
  • 30 Oct, 2019: Received ADR Request for IMM5669E for both myself and my wife.
I don't understand why after all this time they require the form again?
Have we made any mistakes in the application, especially in regards to these confusing "Do not leave any gaps" section? The ADR request form doesn't say anything specific. It just says

We have begun processing your application for permanent residence, and in order to make a decision we require the following information/documents:
" A separate and newly completed Schedule A Background Declaration form (IMM 5669) bearing an original signature. Please note that you must provide details since the age of 18 or the past 10 years. Be sure to not leave any gaps."​


The fact they wrote, "We have begun processing your application" is also scary.

I wonder if they are doing this just to harass us because we filed a webform requesting an update.
In any case, I know it needs to be filled, but I am just getting paranoid.

Can someone also check my work history and travel history, and guide me if I have left any gaps?
I still don't quite understand the gap process

For instance,
  • 2011-07 to 2012-06 - Education Activity (Masters Degree)
  • 2012-07 to 2014-01 - Employment

Is that fine or do I have to add a column to show a 'gap' between June and July,
  • 2012-06 to 2012-07 - Unemployed

I'd finish my masters by the end of June and by the first week of July I had a job...so I really don't quite get it.
My travel history is worse as I kept flying back home during semester vacations for a period of 10 days, and I've no idea if I've properly written my travel history. The dates are accurate, but again unsure if I've to write it like
  • 2008-04-04 to 2008-08-28 Singapore
  • 2008-08-28 to 2008-08-31 Mumbai
  • 2008-08-31 to 2008-09-24 Singapore and so on.


Any help appreciated.

Any help appreciated folks.
The form says specifically:
Under "Activity", write your occupation or job title if you were working. If you were not working, provide information on what you were doing (unemployed, studying, travelling etc). If you were outside your country of nationality, indicate your status in that country or territory

As an example,
My country of nationality is India and I studied in Singapore.

2008-04 to 2011-06 Educational Activity Singapore Student

But during this time I've taken at least 8-10 trips back and forth to india and singapore, for vacations in home country.
A lot of people say not to mention trips back to country of nationality, and even the form says mention the trips outside country of nationality...


But then does that give a sense of continuity... doesn't it break a chronological flow??

In this case


2008-04 to 2008-09 Educational Activity Singapore Student
(India trip1)
2008-10 to 2008-12 Educational Activity Singapore Student
(india trip2)
2009-01 to 2009-06 Educational Activity Singapore Student
(india trip3)
2009-07 to 2009-09 Educational Activity Singapore Student
(india trip4)
2009-10 to 2009-11 Educational Activity Singapore Student
2009-11 to 2009-11 Vacation Thailand Tourist
2009-11 to 2010-12 Educational Activity Singapore Student
(india trip5)
2010-01 to 2010-02 Educational Activity Singapore Student
and so on..

is this fine? Would they understand that the whole thing is one continuous period where I was pursuing a degree...which was FULL TIME...i don't want them to end up thinking i was doing part time...we just had 4 semester breaks a year.


Also, another question,
I have a problem here.
  • 2015-04 to 2016-05 Employment - Self-employed business
  • 2016-04 to 2016-06 Employment - Visiting Lecturer at an Institution.
I understand there is an overlap, but I was actually working at two places. My own business from Mon-Fri, and the visiting faculty position on Saturdays.
The visiting lecturer position was considered part-time and since it was only 8 hours a week, it didn't fit the criteria to gain additional CRS points, but since I've to be completely transparent, I've written it down.
How do I fix this?
Please help.
This is so damn confusing.
