Hi all, I've 2 questions and it would be super helpful of someone can share some insights on them as it's very difficult to find an answer on this.
I'm in the process of submitting my Canadian Citizenship Application and had a couple of question regarding Physical Presence and Work experience. I'll be applying on Feb 15, 2024 which means I'll have to submit
all required information from Feb 15, 2019 until Feb 14, 2024 (5 year period).
- Physical Presence:
I was a student on study permit from August 2018 until November 2020. My letter of completion (for my program) is dated May 25, 2020 and I applied for PGWP on May 28, 2020 (3 year based on DLI). I started working full-time on implied status from June 1, 2020 until I received my PGWP on November 04, 2020.
Question: For the question 'List the time with Canadian temporary resident', should I state 'International Student' for the time I was working full-time on implied status and waiting for PGWP? If not, what should it be?
- Work experience:
I need to account for all time frames without leaving a gap. I was a student student between 2018-2020 and I was also working as a consultant (self employed) from 2019 - 2020 as well as I also worked on campus as a Research Assistant between 2018 - 2019.
Question: How do I list all these experiences as they have an overlap? Also, do I need to show all of them? I do not want to hide any information and be truthful at all times.
Thank you for your help, I really appreciate it.
