Hi Everyone and hope your AOR's are coming fast!

I am submitting my application for citizenship this week and i have a small question regarding work experience.

I am employed by the company in Dubai for whom i work remotely for the whole period since i arrived to Canada as a PR.
Since the company has no representation in Canada and does not conduct business in Canada, by CPA recommended that i submit my taxes as self-employed, which i did all these years.
So in my work experience section within the application should i mention that i was self-employed or i should mention Dubai address and name of the employer and state that i was employed?

Any recommendations please?

IRCC does not much care.
