So I need to submit two proofs to show my permanent residency but I only have confirmation of permanent residency and I am not sure about second document. Also they are asking for 5 years of Notice of assessments but have been in Canada for only 4 years and became permanent resident just like 2 months ago so how should I go about it.?

Include your COPR and a letter of explanation that you are a new PR who has not yet received your PR card. You are not required to prove that you meet the Residency Obligation, so don't worry about NOAs or other such proofs.

You can't prove you meet the RO because you've only been a PR for a few months, so it's not necessary.

8. At a minimum, you must provide:
two (2) pieces of evidence that show your permanent resident status in Canada; and • information for the five (5) years immediately before the application, such as:
• employment records or pay stubs;
• bank statements;
• Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) Notice of Assessment for the five (5) years immediately before the application; • evidence that you received benefits from Canadian government programs;
• rental agreements;
• club memberships;
• or any other documents that are relevant to the determination of your residency obligation.
I am accompanying a Canadian citizen out of CA for last six years, so I am good on second part. But bolded is not clear. I finally find my old COPR from landing, but that is it. Any recommendations on what else to provide? I have a couple assessments (2008/9), a letter from my Canadian employer at the time, stating I was employed, a SIN card, and original passport showing immigrant visa/landing stamp, but that's it.
