URGENT :Adding Personal History after ITA receievd

[vsgautam]

Dear forum members,

I am in the process of filling up the application after receiving ITA in the 15th draw, however, I have below queries as :

1. Address History :
As I have being living on rent for the past 14-15 years (being a student first and then related to work place), I have shifted around quite often and now do not exactly remember every minute details as asked in the form e.g. House #, street etc... I am only sure about the overall area and city/town.
How should I proceed?

2. Personal History :

a. Does the previous 10 years refers to from 1 Jan 2005 to current or the 60 months prior to the month ITA was recieved (Sep 2005 - current)?

b. For spouse, do we have to fill in history from 18th birthday. As per the comments on the CIC page, it asks for last 10 years continuous history or from 18th birthday whichever is latest but when I am trying to fill in the last 10 years history for my spouse, it is showing an error as 'Show history from 18th birthday' although my wife's age is now 30!

c. In this section, it is also showing my wife's work history (outside Canada) whereas I had deleted this info from my initial application as was not receiving any points for this and did not wanted to go through the hassle of obtaining job reference letter (as advised by Asivad). So now my problem is that while filling info to validate the initial application, spouse's work history is mentioned in her personal as well as work history categories, however, when I view the submitted application, there the work history is NA as I had inputted!

Should I remove her work history from work exp category and let it be mentioned in personal history or would it be considered misrepresentation?

It would be great if members who have already completed this stage successfully could share their inputs.

Thanks

Be as thorough as possible. At least try to provide city level inforamtion without gaps.

2. Personal History :

From the date you get your ITA.

b. For spouse, do we have to fill in history from 18th birthday. As per the comments on the CIC page, it asks for last 10 years continuous history or from 18th birthday whichever is latest but when I am trying to fill in the last 10 years history for my spouse, it is showing an error as 'Show history from 18th birthday' although my wife's age is now 30!

Re-check if you've entered the birth year correctly. If the issue still persists, provide details from the time they turned 18.

c. In this section, it is also showing my wife's work history (outside Canada) whereas I had deleted this info from my initial application as was not receiving any points for this and did not wanted to go through the hassle of obtaining job reference letter (as advised by Asivad).

Feel free to remove it from work history again. Not a misrepresentation because it makes no material difference to your application. If you're very worried, add an LOE highlighting that removing this makes no difference to your application.

It would be great if members who have already completed this stage successfully could share their inputs.

Hi Asivad,

Thank you for your inputs.

I did re-check my spouse's DOB earlier and it was correct, will re-try else share details from 18th birthday.

Also, as removing her work history again is concerned, it will not raise any issue when mentioned in personal history right (for the previous 5 years she is employed)?

Kindly confirm

No difference in work history because it gets you no points (but it does get you a lot of needless work in procuring reference letters).

One can even argue that you can show your spouse as 'Unemployed' in personal history because it doesn't make a material difference to your PR application (unless your spouse happened to live in another country for more than 6 months in a row in which case they would need PCC) but recommend that one provides full disclosure in Personal history section.

Hello Asivad,

I am just wondering if we can delete from the work history what we created in the EE profile and was carried over after getting ITA. I have put down skill level C jobs and I know I dont need them for experience neither I got points for it, but now its asking for proof for everything. All advise would be welcome, thank you .

You can delete that from your work history.
