What should I put in trip notes?
Use notes for facts that explain the record: purpose, border timing, entry document, stay name, places visited, evidence location, and why a correction was made.

What to do
- Record unusual border or time-zone details.
- Identify the evidence that supports the dates.
- Explain later corrections without deleting the original context.
Why this matters
Good notes help you or an advisor understand the trip years later without changing the day count themselves. Avoid opinions about legal status unless a qualified advisor supplied them.
The trip record should describe what happened. The tracker then applies its configured calculation. Keep documents for disputed boundary dates and avoid changing accurate history only to produce a preferred result.
Check the rule behind the answer
Jurisdictions do not all define a presence day in the same way. Read How to Track Days Across Countries for the rule context and cited sources used by this answer. Official guidance and advice for your facts take priority over an app display.
Before you rely on the total
- Check the country, entry date, departure date, and local time where relevant.
- Resolve duplicate, missing, overlapping, or unreviewed GPS-assisted records.
- Confirm the tracker period, countries, threshold, and tracking direction.
- Export a fresh record after any correction that changes a previously shared total.
When to ask a professional
Ask a qualified tax or immigration professional when a count is close to a legal threshold, an exception may apply, records conflict, or a late correction could affect a filing, permit, or overstay. Jetseen organizes dates and calculations. It does not decide your legal status.
