My personal history list is already pre-filled with information about my education and employment. These are however not in chronological order and whatever I add goes to the bottom of the list even if it happened before the pre-filled activities. The instructions say:

"Provide the details of xxx's personal history in the last ten years (or since his/her 18th birthday if this was less than ten years ago).
Start with the most recent information."

Should I delete the pre-filled activities and insert my activities from the most recent in chronological order or should I just go ahead by adding the other activities to the list even though the list will not be in chronological order?

I have the same concern...but I have already re-arranged my orders. Hopefully, it will be fine. I have one more question, please help me...I took a vacation for two months during my employment. That's, I came back for the same job. So when I tired to enter the vacation in personal history, do I have to cut off my employment? I meant I will do :
aug 2015-aug 2016. Employed Company. X
Sep 2016-oct 2016. Unemployed. Traveling
Nov 2016- today. Employed Company x. ?????
Am I correct? I am so confused. I don't know how to include the vacation during same employment

Please advise!

I would say you include the vacation (if outside your country) in travel history not in personal history.

If you're saying that you traveled from Canada to your home country, then I would say include all your travels to Canada in your travel history. For example in my case I am doing something like this in my travel history:

Sep 2010 - Jan 2012 traveled to Canada, reason: study (then I took a vacation back to my home country for a month before coming back to continue my studies)
Mar 2012 - Aug 2012 traveled to Canada, reason: study


I think you still do not need to include vacations in your personal history though.

I am not 100%sure but I think you don't need to put Canada in your travel history if you are in Canada. Because you are residence of Canada. From what I remember(I closed my account ), it only asks the countries you travelled other than your nationality country and residence of. Please double check, I don't want to mislead you. That's just my understanding.

It is pre filled. I just felt that deleting the pre filled bits and adding them again will show up in the GCMS notes. I continued filling the missing bits and they are not in order. Mentioned it in the LoE

I'm not sure if deleting pre-filled parts would be a big deal since for education history I mistakenly changed the answer to the question whether I have completed secondary or higher education to no and everything was gone after I changed it to yes again. So I had to insert my education info all over again.

Was that an issue in ur case, we're there any enquiries at their end. I too had erroneously deleted the education entries, but it back the same as it is
