Q 11 - home address or company address?

This is another one of those confusing questions. I don't know why they can't make it clear. The question asks .. "physically reside".. it could mean office address or home as it talks about where were you really residing. For example, if your employer was in Ottawa, but you were working remotely and living in Toronto, you would say Toronto (my opinion). Alternatively, you could be employed by a Canadian Company, but on a project overseas so you would technically be residing out of Canada.
I listed the office address, but also listed that i was living at the home addresses in question 10 during that period (in parenthesis). That should cover both scenarios.

IMO it should be the address where you physically worked out from. It probably accounts for the fact that these days some people rarely, if ever, work at their employer's location. So if your company is based out of the US but you work remote, you just write your home address.
For regular cases this will be your employer's work location.

I totally agree that the ambiguity is annoying, but why would they ask for the home address TWICE in question 10 and question 11. That makes no sense.
well that is a very ambiguous comment about an ambiguous affair.
which address do you mean?mosaab

This is just my guess: while they seem to have simplified many aspects of the application (though with some ambiguities) they have actually added this "physical location" and the "phone and email address of work" to the activities in Canada section. My guess is that they want to make sure that for the activity you were doing, you were actually in a Canadian city. As it is mentioned above, they are not even asking for a postal code, they just want the street number, name and the city plus country. It is stressing that you were doing your work from a Canadian location that they might verify.
I feel it's work address, and that's what i put on my application. However, someone on another posted that an IRCC call center worker advised him it should be home address. Confusing ... probably doesn't matter as long as you were in a Canadian city ?
