Q13 Have you ever held immigration or citizenship status in any country other than Canada, including your country of birth?
I have studied in Australia. I have put myself as student in the status column. However i am confused with Date obtained/effective date, and end date columns.
The visa was issued in April 2008, the visa was valid till March 2010.
I went for my studies in August 2008, and I left the country in December 2009.
What will be my effective and end dates in those columns?
I don't know the correct answer to your questions, but you can always answer it one way and then add a sheet of paper with the question number on it and write a brief and to the point explanation. I did that in my employment history as I'd had some parental leave that ran concurrent to my full time job I was on leave from and I wanted to explain the situation so there was no confusion.
It must have been good enough as they didn't even ask about it at the interview.
They have "student"/"worker" in the choices available. This makes it likely that you should state those as well.
I personally put my J-1 student exchange visa in the US for 4 months in this. Does not hurt in any way, and they will come across it while doing background checks on me.
