Hi all I am applying my citizenship next month ( Feb 2018 )
I am confused about my eligibility.
I am in Canada since 2013 DEC
But when I calculate my physical presence calculators It says my eligibility period from 2013 Feb t0 2018 Feb
But i want not in Canada from feb 2013
Also in Q10a asking write the address in eligibility period so my question should I write my all Canadian address or last five years address like eligibility address
The eligibility period only means that your 1095+ days can only be accumulated during this period. It's fine if you lived somewhere else for a period in the last 5 years. You're not obliged to spend the whole period within the country.
And just write the address in the country where you've been in question q10a too. All 5 years should be covered there.

Your eligibility period is always the 5 years prior to the day you sign your citizenship application, regardless of your presence in Canada.
Write all your addresses within this 5 years period, including your address in the other country from february to december 2013.
Each and every one of these tables must cover the full five years. It doesn't matter if you lived in Canada, some other country or on the moon. It's that easy.
There is nothing wrong with having lived somewhere else in the last five years. The rule is 3 out of 5 years, not 5 out of 5 years exactly for that reason.
All of this applies to work history just the same.
