I have a question about the residence calculator and wld appreciate some advice :
I had a stopover for 5 days in USA while on transit back to my home country. I stayed for about 1 year in my home country before coming back to Canada for good. Should I include the 5 days in USA under the list of absence from Canada? Or, should I just indicate my home country for the entire 1 year + 5 days?
Upon my return to Canada, I transited via LAX and stayed for a night before continuing with my journey back to Canada. Should I include that 1 night stay in LAX which is essentially a transit sleepover under the list of absence from canada? Both times, there were entry stamps into USA on my passport.

As per the instruction, you should count this as 1 absent - Date you left Canada to Date you came back. Since you visited 2 countries, you have to mention that too in the description --> Your destination was your home country, but you also visited/ stayed in USA to/from country A (home country's name)
