Thank you so much for your response. The exact question in the application is, "Do you currently, or have you ever held immigration or citizenship status in a country or territory other than Canada (this includes your country of birth)?"
So I am stuck at the "Date obtained or effective date" and "end date". Should do I put the visa validity date there? Or just the dates of the actual visit periods when I traveled?
Thanks
I think you should put the visa validity date. If there is a spot that they asked when you traveled then put the date you entered and exited the country. But generally I think you should just put the validity date of the visa.
Goodluck!

No. Even if you need a visa to enter the country, there's no need to list it if we're speaking here about a simple vacation.

I noticed that according to the latest update of the instructions, the word "visitor" has been removed from Q.13.
