Hey, I will be submitting my application online soon. I am stuck in Q where asks about previous immigration and citizenship status anywhere other than Canad? What does this question require? Did you include your whole travel history?
@Massi88 Myself I added all my immigration history, included visitor visa, permanent resident etc... I included everything since I have that list handy.

Hi,
I received an email requesting that I submit all pages of my passport. My passport contains multiple exit and re-entry stamps that are not in English. Should I translate all these stamps, or can I simply submit the pages because these stamps were before I entered Canada?

We have only included places of residence and citizenship, although I would include places where one held work permits (as for many countries work permits are effectively 'resident' status). I do not technically know but I would assume anything like 'overseas citizen' status like Indian has is something that should be disclosed (although most would apply to get this after becoming a Canadian citizen).
Personally I don't believe the 'immigration and citizenship status' language is meant to include tourism, transit, and the like. After all, you basically provide travel history in the days-count.
YMMV. Now, I admit there may be grey area here, esp for those who leave and spend long periods of time during the five-year period before applying for citizenship.
But if you're somewhere for more than six months, that implies you have some 'immigration status' in that country, I should think - and I would disclose that as an immigration status if you spent that long somewhere. Probably not true everywhere but most places.

Hey, their requirement for the scan is very low (96 dpi), total file size must be 5MB. Can I place two passport images side by side to create a single page with four passport images?
I uploaded the bio page in the section where it asked for the first & last pages. On the last page where it allowed me to add additional documents, I uploaded all passport pages (including my previous passport that covered a portion of the 5 years).
