I came to Canada in 2021 and received my PR last week. I'm applying for PR card for the first time. In the form, there is a question-

1. "4.1 Address History (Inside and Outside Canada) (required)
List your address history for the past five (5) years or if you became a PR less than five (5) years ago, your address history since becoming a PR. List your activities in order from the most recent to the oldest"

2. "Your work and educational history for the past five (5) years or if you became a PR less than five (5) years ago, your work and educational history since becoming a PR"

3. " Have you travelled or lived outside Canada in the past five (5) years? "

Should I mention the details (address, work history, education) before 2021? Its confusing because of this sentence "or if you became a PR less than five (5) years ago".

My question is do I need to mention details before I became PR or no need since I just became PR??

If you are a new permanent resident, you will automatically receive your new card by mail when you first arrive in Canada. This is part of the immigration process and you do not need to apply for a PR Card.

Did you do "virtual landing" if yes then they will automatically mail out your first PR Card to you as a part of the process.
