Out of curiousity: you need buffer because you are not sure about your travel dates from the past or because sometimes even if your dates are correct it does not match official records because the officer made a typo or something?

If it is the latter, it is quite scary as I applied with no buffer (I put all dates based on my boarding passes and tickets which I all kept for this day).
You should get your records from CBSA. Its free and fill your application accordingly to avoid any conflicts.
 
Hello Await,
Sorry I didn't notify you before I deleted the previous thread. JJS created this new thread without realizing I already made a thread. So I just deleted mine to avoid confusion.

No worries coshx,

Thanks
 
If a kid is not school going age for a certain period, do i still need to fill anything in school name and city columns?
 
Thanks Katayoon
But still they said two......
Lets assume one health card for a kid below 14 certainly no photo...
The question is what the second identification proof which contain a photo....the available options are either the PR or passport (my kids passport expired since 2014)....I need practical suggestions....
Thanks again
Ameer

Hi Ameer,

I'm faced with the same question as you. Did you manage to find a solution? I called IRCC and they said to attach a letter explaining, as the applicant is a minor that I'm unable to provide any additional photo ID's. I plan to attach PR card, health card and passport copy. Please let me know if you find out anything new.

Thanks

I just looked at my calculator and I think I made a typo - I have 1461 days rather than 1460 because I applied next day after becoming eligible (as they require).

I have a few overseas travels through Dubai. Does the translated Arabic PP stamps need to be sent along with the application? Or do you just need it for the interview after the test? Appreciate any advice, thanks
