- 8 November 2026 · Added. NZCS 150 guide, a question-by-question walkthrough of the New Zealand Customs travel movements form. The 183-day calculator now also explains how 183 days compares with six calendar months.
- 8 November 2026 · Checked. Re-checked the rules behind every calculator against current official sources or, for the 183-day country presets, PwC's Worldwide Tax Summaries. Passport entry rules are checked separately every week.
- 8 November 2026 · Corrected. EES and ETIAS guide: the official ETIAS site no longer gives a launch quarter, so the guide no longer says the last quarter of 2026. We also replaced two official links that had stopped working and updated several that had moved.
- 8 November 2026 · Expanded. British citizenship (how the Home Office treats excess absences), green card travel (long trips and citizenship), Australian Resident Return visa, Canadian PR, NZ permanent resident visa, UK long residence and rolling days calculators.
- 8 November 2026 · Rule change. UK earned settlement guide rewritten after the government confirmed the 10-year framework on 2 November 2026, including the closure of the 10-year long residence route. The ILR and long residence calculators now flag this. The Immigration Rules have not changed yet, so the calculators still apply today's limits.
- 8 November 2026 · Corrected. Canada citizenship calculator: IRCC counts the 5 years back from the date you sign your application, so the page now says that instead of "the date you apply". We also corrected the note about IRCC's official calculator: online applicants must use the one inside their IRCC account.
- 8 November 2026 · Expanded. Australian and New Zealand citizenship calculators: added what is tested after the day counts, the special dates for New Zealand citizens in Australia, and New Zealand's 450-day exceptional circumstances rule.
- 28 October 2026 · Added. Passport validity checker for US and UK passports, with guides to validity rules by country, the UK 10-year rule and Mexico's passport rules.
- 27 October 2026 · Added. UK earned settlement guide, covering the government's consultation. These are proposals, not law, and the guide will change when new rules are published.
- 27 October 2026 · Expanded. NZ Skilled Migrant points calculator: added a section explaining that the old 160 and 180 point system ended on 9 October 2023.
- 14 October 2026 · Corrected. Travel history guide: the CBP I-94 history does not show the trips of green card holders, so N-400 applicants need passport stamps or a CBP records request instead.
- 14 October 2026 · Added. Irish citizenship calculator, based on the 2023 Act and the Immigration Service Delivery guide, plus the NZ Skilled Migrant points and snowbird calculators.
- 5 October 2026 · Added. Methodology page explaining where the rules come from, how days are counted and how the maths is tested.
