i would say inform them now , reason ; if you wait until PPR then it would delay your application.

According to the CIC website, you need to inform them about changes in the circumstances of your family, job address, etc. If you don't, it would amount to misrepresentation. They want you to inform. If you don't, it's a risk you take.

the only thing "current address " come into play is when they need you to send your Passport for PR and when they send it back , so if you don't have right/current address on file they will send it to the address that they have on your file (old one) ,
