Last six years or since she is PR, whichever is sooner. This includes addresses abroad.
I suggest you read the instructions guide as it answers to this kind of questions.

You're wrong. It's clearly stated on the application what is needed. It says:

"List all your Canadian and overseas addresses in the relevant period, including postal codes. If you were residing, employed or attending school outside of Canada during this time, you must also indicate all your foreign addresses. If you miss any period of time during the relevant period, your application will be returned to you.

It couldn't be any clearer. It's vital that anyone applying takes the time to read the application forms and the instructions carefully. This data is needed for part of the background check - and the same information was needed when applying for PR.

PR application time was asking last 10 years address
Citizenship application asking last six or since you become PR which is most recent


See the post on top ; she came in Canada 2013 as a PR


So she don't need overseas address

She would be ok if she write 2013-2017 only in Canadian address

Again I m not specialist or lawyer but I think I understand correctly Q6G

The relevant period is your residence period (your calculation of time physically present in Canada). This information is used to help make sure you have met the physical presence requirement for Canadian citizenship. The minimum amount of time you need to be in Canada to be eligible for citizenship is 1,460 days within the six years immediately before applying. This means that your relevant period starts a minimum of 1,460 days before you sign your application.

so spend in Canada 4 years X 365 days = 1460

This means that your relevant period starts a minimum of 1,460 days before you sign your application.

I came to Canada as PR in December 2013, and listed the addresses since then only. The relevant period is since you became a PR. You will need to list any adresses in another country if you lived there more than 6 month.
If you visited another country for a few weeks you do not have to list that address.

This are the instructions on CIC website:

"Write all your Canadian addresses for the six (6) years before the date of your application or since you became a permanent resident, whichever is more
recent
("the relevant period") (/english/information/applications/guides/CIT0002ETOC.asp#relevant), including the postal codes.
If you were residing, employed or attending school outside Canada, you must also list all your foreign addresses, including the postal codes."

Vacation does not mean residence, working or school.

Cheers to everyone and good luck 8)

There is a confusion in the understanding of this. When CIC says "any foreign addresses" it means foreign addresses after the person became a PR. Remember that many people land as a PR and leave Canada to live elsewhere temporarily, so CIC wants to know about those cases because you cannot have date gaps from the time you became a PR on your application. When it says "6 years", that would be for people that became a PR six or more years ago.

Rule 1. You need to list all foreign address you have lived at ONLY since you became a PR and for a maximum of 6 years. If you have not lived outside Canada since you became a PR, then you have no foreign addresses to list.

Rule 2. You do not have to disclose any foreign addresses before you became a PR. This is because time before becoming a PR does not count (at least not under the current law).

In this case, the argument arises because the PR seems to have lived in Canada since he/she became a PR, and therefore not having any foreign addresses to list since his or her landing.
