As long as you have answered it correctly in the form you recently submitted, you are fine.

It is your responsibility to provide accurate information and if your entered something incorrectly which you are now aware of your should send a webform and get it corrected.

@legalfalcon I need inform them I didn't mention in my study and work visas or just this time fine?

All visa refusals should be disclosed. IF you are unaware of any, you can explain it in LoE.

All your visa refusals should be declared in your application, not doing so can lead to misrepresentation. As per law you have an obligation to be truthful. Section 16(1) of the IRPA states:
  • 16 (1) A person who makes an application must answer truthfully all questions put to them for the purpose of the examination and must produce a visa and all relevant evidence and documents that the officer reasonably requires.

See Tuiran v. Canada (Citizenship and Immigration), 2018 FC 324 (CanLII), <http://canlii.ca/t/hr59k

If you have not submitted your application, then any webform you send will be of no significance a you do not have an application filed.

When you submit your application, submit a LoE with it.

Should I inform? As I am waiting for my Aor? @legalfalcon. Can I send updated version of form as well?
After you receive your AoR, you can inform IRCC. There is no need for an updated form unless asked.

Hello experts,

I have mentioned my previous Canada study visa refusal but forgot to mention my SASK PNP ineligibility. I haven't received any AOR so far. Therefore my application is not yet started processing. What should I do, I need your expert comments.

Thanks in advance.
