I noticed (hopefully) small mistakes in my PR application - should I send update to IRCC?

Hi folks,

After receiving my OWP I finally had the inspiration to look through my PR application again. My spouse and I made a copy of everything we submitted, and I noticed two mistakes that I hope don't come back to haunt me. I don't gain any advantage whatsoever from either of the mistakes, which are due to sloppiness as I needed to get the application in in order to be able to start working sooner rather than later.

Mistake 1:

In my applications for PR and OWP, I have provided two different dates for original entry to Canada. One is based on my first entry for a previous student visa for a Masters degree, the second is based on my first entry based on my current student visa for a PhD. However, neither one is correct. The original entry stems from several years earlier when I crossed the Alaska/Yukon border on foot.

Mistake 2:

Forgot to include one address I used to live in Schedule A. I did include a police certificate and school information from that time though.

Is it worth it to send a letter to IRCC? Or just leave it and hope for the best?

Many thanks, as always.
