Hello there!

So we are in February and I'm filling up my application after getting an ITA a couple of weeks ago. The sections where it asks to submit your activities, jobs, trips, etc, over the past 10 years, does it mean I have to submit everything from Jan 2007 (had a trip from Sep 2006-Jan 2007) or from Feb 2007?

Thank you!

If you got ITA in Feb, Feb2007 onwards is ok.
 
On that front - is there any specific reason for the month of Jan 2007 being excluded?

Only asking because on the off chance that your travel for that month does put you over the 6 month mark for obtaining a PCC, it may be worthwhile to get that ball rolling as well.

Hi, so my trip was for 5 months. Do I need to do a PCC even if it wasn't for 6 months? No right?
 
Technically, no - however, on the assumption that they're going by year (2007) and not by exact month and year of travel (Feb 2007), is your trip still only 5 months?

Just mentioning so as to be extra cautious - Do not want to be alarmist, but the CIC is notorious for straight up refusing applications if the proper PCC's aren't submitted with the application. So if you feel there's a chance that this might happen, better to play it safe, especially if it's at a fairly nominal cost when compared to what you've spent so far vs. what you'd need to spend to re-file.

Just my thoughts - the decision is entirely yours.

Yes, it was still 5 months. Sep 3 2006-Jan 20 2007 to be exact.
 
And no, there is not a specific reason why I would omit this trip on my application. I was just wondering because the trip was from 2006 to 2007.

But 20th Jan 2007 is beyond 10years now.
