Guys, I am sorry to ask this advice again but need to confirm.
I applied for PR on nov 2012 when I was working...got laid off in March 2013...PR application was rejected in nov 2013 becoz my exp was 10 days less than a year..Applied again Nov 2013 while I was on EI....went to home country for few months..came back in Feb and joined NOC B class job while looking for NOC A one...Its been almost an year since I am looking for NOC A job...Got rejected from few because of PR as they dont want to take risk with one year WP left, hard to convince people by telling them about BOWP...which I will extend in May as my work permit is getting expired in sep 2014..

Now question is....I wrote in my PR application that I was unmployed when applied...Can this have any negative effect on my application..I have a offer for NOC A starting from April 1. Should I send them copy of my new work contract ?

No, all good. You don't have to be employed when you apply.

I was unemployed for almost a year right after I finished University and it didn't have any effects for me when I included it in my application.

you need 12 months of full-time skilled employment. if you get a one year work permit, you will have to start working on the first day.
if you can get a job lined up for the full 12 months, then yes you can apply.

Every job has a NOC, however yours - in order to become eligible under the CEC - has to be skill level 0, A or B.
Check my website for information about NOCs and requirements for CEC applications.
