Eligibility Date earlier than PR Date

Hi,

I currently reside in Mississauga and have some questions regarding the Citizenship Application form.

My situation:
I became PR on August 2015. Prior to that I have not been to Canada.
Since became PR, I have only been away from Canada for 1 month. Using the 'Physical Presence Calculator' I am eligible to apply for the citizenship and my eligibility period is February 2014 - February 2019.

The eligibility is covering 1.5 years (Feb 2014 - Aug 2015) before I became PR and during this period I am still living in my home country Malaysia.

Questions related to eligibility period in application form:
1.
Question 10a - Where have you lived during your eligibility period?


Question 11 - Tell us what you have been doing during your eligibility period, inside and outside Canada.
i) For both questions above, do I need to list the addresses and my employment details when I am living outside of Canada between Feb 2014 - Aug 2015?
ii) Do I need to provide any extra supporting document e.g. police certificate, etc?

2. Physical Presence Calculator (PPC)

Do I need to enter the Feb 2014 - Aug 2015 as absence in PPC, including all my travels between this period?

Thank you so much for reading and replying.

Best Regards
Rachel
