It is not a problem. You can list your period of not working as "unemployed". Nothing to worry about.

They want to know where you were for last 6 years. So include your time before you become PR, including time outside Canada.

The application asks for your history in the last 6 years immediately before the date of your application or since you became a permanent resident - so in your case it would be from 2012-2016

Just an update to my posting. My earlier posting regarding where you were was incorrect. My apology. The application does ask for history since PR status if less than 6 years. So listing where you were before PR is not needed.

For both sections you provide information covering Aug 2012-Aug 2016.

But from Aug 2012 -Aug 2013 -Aug 2014 -Aug 2015 - Aug 2016 is only 5 yrs

in the 6 past years immediately before the date of your application or since you become permanent resident witch ever is more recent ,

so it is starting from aug 2012 is that correct .

Zineb did you put your details in the Calculator provided by CIC website? It is reliable if you enter the correct information.

You are getting the same answer over and over and you still keep asking the same question?

It says it simple and clear on the application and members here have given you the answer you are looking for. But one more time: For both address and work it clearly states "... or since you became a permanent resident". So since you became PR in August 2015 for work and address you put your information from 2012-2016.
