    Work experience by months or days?

    12 x 130 =1560 which is the minimum hours requirement for 1 year each month being generally more than 28days. You say "around 130 hours" if one month it was 125 and the next 135 I think it would be wise to count a maximum of 130 and perhaps work an extra couple of weeks. If however you have...

    Mixed part time full time hour calculation

    I believe the letter that your employer/s writes should include a number of key points as requested by IRCC. The letter/s are a key element in your application and its worth getting as close to what is required as possible. If you supply payslips as well that should be sufficient.

    Mixed part time full time hour calculation

    I submitted leters from employers which stated the typical range of hours for part time e.g. 20-30 hours per week. Plus payslip copies these were for either a two week period or half calendar month. These were accepted. I did not supply T4s as these don't state hours. I had a full analysis of...

    CEC 1 year experience calculation.

    Its the length of experience at the date of the ITA which is important. 14 months full time (30 hours or more per week) at the time of ITA is fine.

    HOW WORK EXPERIENCE IS CALCULATED?

    You will need a letter from each employer and you can combine those employments as long as the jobs are qualifying NOC codes. I would estimate you would have enough full time equivalent work by the end of January 2021.

    HOW WORK EXPERIENCE IS CALCULATED?

    Yes you can mix full and part time experience . You have about 10months full and 6months part time I assume the part time hours are enough to make 2months equivalent full time work. You need 52 weeks of a minimum 30 hours per week or the equivalent hours of 1560 counting a maximum of 30 hours...

    Combining part time and full time jobs for CEC

    Yes you can combine if both jobs qualify. Count 30 hours for each full time week and hours up to 30 hours in any week for the part time job. If you get to 1560 hours you have the equivalent of one years full time. You can only count a maximum of 30 hours for any week as IRCC define full time as...

    Combining part time and full time jobs for CEC

    If you have worked the equivalent of one year full time (1560 hours counting a maximum of 30 hours in any one week) you can set up your profile and hopefully get an ITA then apply. So it could be less than 18 months if your part time work was say 20 hours per week. (20 x 39 weeks plus 30 x 26...

    Got ITA on the day of completion of 1 year Canadian Work Experience

    It will depend on your contract what pay you get. A lot of jobs calculate at 4% of gross and it should be shown on your paystub what amount you have accumulated. IRCC will allow a maximum of two weeks holiday in any 52 to count towards your experience. Because IRCC count a maximum of 30 hours...

    Got ITA on the day of completion of 1 year Canadian Work Experience

    To qualify you need 52 weeks of full time hours. IRCC define full time as 30 hours or more per week. So you need 52 x 30 =1560 hours as IRCC only count a maximum of 30 hours per week. Most jobs accumulate 4% of wages as holiday pay which is either paid at the end of the job or as a lump sum to...

    Combining part time and full time jobs for CEC

    IRCC count 30 hours and above as full time working. They quote 1560 hours in a year to qualify but this is calculated as 52 x 30. Therefore in any one week you can count a maximum of 30 hours from one or more qualifying jobs. The letter should be fine in stating an average but you should do a...

    CEC) 1 year work experience from two different NOC?

    Some people call the letter a reference but it is a letter which confirms the job title, its roles and responsibilities, start date, duration, hours of work and pay. It should be on company letter head giving the usual contact details and signed by manager, supervisor or HR department. It is...

    CEC) 1 year work experience from two different NOC?

    You can count part time work towards your year. This is quoted by IRCC as 1560 hours per year, this is based on the definition of full time work as 30 hours per week (30 x 52 =1560). So add together all the part time hours, except any hours over 30 in any one week, divide by 30, and add that...

    CEC) 1 year work experience from two different NOC?

    It would depend on the date of commencement given in the letter which your wife would need to have as confirmation of employment status. The letter is required for the PR application and IRCC specify the details required in that letter. The rate of pay is not a consideration.
