Dear members,

could you please advice me how to fill Travel History section? Do we need to mention our trips from country of residence to country of nationality? Travel history section is limited by 30 lines only, what should be done in case travel history for the last 10 years could not be fully covered by 30 lines?

Regards,

Regards,
Leave out short trips of less than a month or so between country of residence and nationality and include all other travels there. If you want, attach an LOE to list out all the trips in the same format as Travel history section.

Thanks guys. I was also thinking about adding extra table listing all the trips to cover letter. Actually 90% of all my trips are quite short, under 2 weeks, most of them are even shorter like 3-5 days, however they're frequent. That's why I'd rather include an extra document.
By the way, is it ok if I not intentionally put slightly incorrect dates? As I don't have all expired passports and might forget some details.

My travel history has 80 positions. I've put the 30 most recent in the application and then the rest, in a table, uploaded in the LOE.

I travel to a neighbouring country almost every weekend. This neighbouring country is like a 15 min drive away from where I live! I usually just spend the day there and come back later at night! Sometimes, I spend the entire weekend. My question is, do I have to list all my trips to that country? It's not possible for me to list the number of times i've been in that country! Its just way too many !!

Any advice/ideas?

I have a similar situation where I've been to the neighbouring country countless times for a day or two. I am planning to list everything that appears in my passport and nothing more. I just spent the whole weekend matching my outgoing-incoming stamps so I can be quicker inputting them in the application.

I'd say, if you don't have a stamp, you don't need to mention it.

I have hundreds of stamps for that matter. That's my issue!

If I were you, I'd mention everything to the best of my abilities. I wouldn't want to leave anything to chance. But that's just me. It might be totally unnecessary.
I hope some seniors here can give a better advice.
