Hi all,

Ok...question:

When you fill in your forms, you obviously include time out of the country.I spend many days in the US, either day trips or overnighters..............please tell me you dont declare them...I would never remember them all!

.thanks in advance!

Hi

You have to declare the overnighters.

So what does he do if he really can't remember?

go through your passport and match the dates in there. They will check this when you take your test.

Its very unlikely there will be stamps for day trips to the US.

What I did was just estimate and say ~10 day trips (or whatever the number is), and made sure I was well over the required number of days in canada to qualify, and there was no problem.

You might be able to figure out dates from say credit card billing dates. If you can, put them down, but if not just take a guess. Just be sure you have days in hand before applying. Worked for me anyway.

............excatly right, once your I-94 is put in, and you have the 90 day period to come and go, you receive no stamps, plus the Canadians never check the passport coming back, they just look at the PR card and ask how long you have been gone........so i guess as far as they are concerned its a day trip!
No way can I recall every date, I am there most weekends!!!!

Well as iaink said: assume you were in fact there every weekend then make sure you have enough days in Canada anyway.
