Dividends payable is a Current Liability.

If a liability is payable within 1 yr or 1 accounting period then it is considered a Current Liability.

If the Liability is payable after 1 yr or 1 accounting period then it is considered a Long-Term Liability.

Customer Advances is considered Unearned Revenue therefore it is a Current Liability
