My question is regarding Living Address.
The situation is as follows:
My Residential address is in GTA and I work in a place which is almost 200 km away from my residence. As a result, I stay in a hotel near my workplace during the workdays and I comeback to GTA at weekends and stay the whole weekends and again go back to workplace. This is what I have been continuing for the last one year. Now, my question is: what should be my Living Address? Is it my residence in GTA where my family lives or the address of the hotel at my workplace?

I believe following can be done in this situation.
(1) Attach an explanation letter with your application and mention your home address in GTA where your family resides. This way you are declaring your exact situation. If needed they will ask for more clarification.
(2) Will the processing office change if you give your home address or work hotel address?

Yes, processing office will definitely be changed.
How about if I put overlapping time meaning if I write two addresses in two consecutive rows having the same time frame but different addresses?

mtoaha, that is a creative idea. But I am not sure if CIC will like it. Simplest thing is to put one address where your full family is residing and attach an explanation letter with your work hotel address. Option-2 is put work hotel address for you and GTA address for your family members, but as you said processing office might change and your file and your family file might be in different offices, which seems complicated. In any case don't forget to attach explanation letter for your work situation.
