On the Form IMM5002E it asks for your Native Language. My native language is English.
Below that it asks "If your native language is not English or French, which language do you use most frequently?"

It then proceeds to let you choose from English, French or Neither and you check off one of those boxes.
Well I took it as since my native language is English, I did not need to check off one of those boxes.
Now that I am thinking of it, should I have?
What did everyone else put for this spot if your native language is English or French?

I think you should put the application in a box and not look at it anymore otherwise you are going to go crazy with stress over tiny tiny things that are really not important

Yeah, I think you'll be fine.. a little thing like that won't be a problem, especially if you were born in an English speaking country and/or had English based education, etc.. they will be able to tell :)

You answered the question correctly. English is your native language so there is no reason to check off which language you use more frequently. Obviously it's English.

I did the same. It's perfect!

I don't remember what I did, I may have actually checked 'English'.. but if I did, I figure the fact that I'm an American English teacher would clarify, hehe.

Thanks guys.

jillandmat: It is in a box lol. This was the last thing I was concerned about and just wanted to clarify I did that right.
