Questions about employment history

Hi,

I was filling out the employment history section on citizenship application form when a question came up. I had two jobs in the past four years. And there was a one month gap between the two jobs.

Job 1 ended on March 15, 2011, while Job 2 started on April 16, 2011. So when I fill out this section, should I just simply put something like this:

From To Description
2011-April time 2 Job 2
time 1 2011-March Job 1

or

From To Description
2011-April time 2 Job 2
2011-March 2011-April unemployed
time 1 2011-March Job 1


I guess my question really is whether or not I should put this one-month gap in this section. The application instruction says that we need to account for each month, but not each day for this particular section. So please enlighten me with your thoughts.

Thanks.

I posted this question on another forum in the hope that someone could kindly help me with it.

You can never give CIC too much information and what they ask for is the absolute minimum. So, if they ask for a complete account for each month make sure you give them that.

So what are you suggesting that I should do with this? I don't declare this one-month gap?

Citizenship is not based on employment. So I guess what ever fact is you can mention on application and it should not have any impact.

The work history part of the form asks for Month/Year for start and end so the 'unemployment' that is of concern to you will likely not be noticed and you won't be telling an untruth.
