Is living in Thailand on a dependant visa termed as living in that country or visiting?
I want to apply for a Canada tourist visa, and we have a question under previous travel that asks
Since the age of 18 or during the past 5 years, whichever is most recent, have you travelled to any other country or territory other than the country or territory of citizenship or residence?
I had a Non-Imm "O" dependant visa while I was in Thailand. It also conflicts with another question of another form that asks about any other place I might have lived for more than 6 months.
What should I enter in such a case?
Is Thailand considered as my residential country? I do not have any documents under my name.
Should I record visits to Thailand as visits to the place, or would it mean that it is my country of residence and so I should not include in the travel history?
Does anyone know how I should fill in the forms to avoid rejection?
Note to all who think that I am asking this to avoid mentioning it on my application:
- I am not willing to hide anything at all since I am aware of the consequences. Otherwise I would not be worried about getting confused in the first place between the two questions. It is the form itself that mentions clearly not to write down any travel history to and from the country of residence/citizenship
