Hi Seniors,

The wording of the question 14 in Citizenship Application form is :

"Have you held travel documents and/or passports during your 5 years of eligibility period
Tell us about all your travel documents and/passports covering your 5 years of eligibility period. If there are any gaps between passports pls provide explanation"


My tentative eligibility period is : 15 May 2016 to 15 May 2021

Passports details: Date of IssueDate of expiry
First Passport25 Jan 200524 Jan 2015
Second (current) Passport8 Aug 20147 Aug 2024
Visas:Date of IssueDate of expiry
USA Visa B1/B2 on Second (current) Passport10 Oct 20148 Oct 2024
Canadian Visitor Visa category V-1 on Second (current) Passport 3 Nov 20166 Aug 2024
Canadian Immigrant Visa category IM-1 on Second (current) Passport7 Dec 2017 29 May 2018

Queries:
1) Am I correct that I just need to mention date of issue and expiry of Second (current) Passport. Not to mention about first one at ?
2)Do I need to mention about the USA Visitor Visa ?
3)Do I need to mention about the Canadian Visitor Visa ?
4)Do I need to mention about the Canadian Immigrant Visa ?...this was issued when I got my PR

Queries:
1) Am I correct that I just need to mention date of issue and expiry of Second (current) Passport. Not to mention about first one at ? Yes as per the question 14 they are just looking for passport details during your '5' year eligibility period so it will be just your second passport.

I did not focused much on that question 14 when I applied & I have included both my first and second passport info

2)Do I need to mention about the USA Visitor Visa ? No
3)Do I need to mention about the Canadian Visitor Visa ? No
4)Do I need to mention about the Canadian Immigrant Visa ?...this was issued when I got my PR : No only passport info will only go on this question 14

The one that was valid at any time during your 5 years eligibility period.
You already know that a passport that's no longer valid since 2015 isn't needed. It's as clear as it gets in the application.
I understand you're stressing a bit for what is definitely a big deal, but trust yourself and don't stress for every single question in your application.

You can keep them both.
Hi Nathaniel ,

Your answer contradicts SEYM's response . What is your reasoning behind for it.

Also, advise:
2)Do I need to mention about the USA Visitor Visa ?
3)Do I need to mention about the Canadian Visitor Visa ?
4)Do I need to mention about the Canadian Immigrant Visa ?...this was issued when I got
