Address discrepancies in spouse's passport

Hi,
We got our ITA on October 29th. My wife is the primary applicant. There is a discrepancy in my passport related to my permanent address. When my passport was issued, the street address of our apartment building was 46 (I also have this in my passport). It later changed to 46/B. The plot number is still 46. Since there are two more buildings in the same plot (46/A & 46/C), our building number changed to 46/B. So all documents I have has the new address, but the passport has the old address (46). Moreover, my wife (the primary applicant) also has 46/B in her permanent address.

Now my question is, should this be an issue? I don't have any supporting documents to prove the address changed. But all my other documents as well as my wife's documents and passport have 46/B. So will this discrepancy in my passport be a problem after we submit eAPR?

I don't think CIC asks any documents for address proof. You just fill your address history in a section, no proofs are required AFAIK.
