A Seafarer will never be able to meet Express Entry's 1 year of continuous work requirement

[chaokeeng]

Seafarer's maximum continuous service period on board a vessel without leave is 11 months.

Note: Work in excess of 30 hours/37.5 hours of paid work over a period of one week cannot compensate for less than one year of full-time work experience.

A seafarer will never be able to meet this requirement even when working for more than 30 hours per week.

Are there any exemptions to the Express Entry's 1 year of continuous work requirement?
