Guys- I have a question on Express entry profile. I had updated my work experience section in the profile for my Canadian company as a start date from May 2022 to presently working here. I would technically complete a year on 05th May 2023

IRCC automatically calculated it as 2 year and gave me extra 50 points as of today and I got an ITA in todays draw. Does this make sense?
System calculates and provides scoring based on Month/Year format. It doesn't work based on date format. So, if your work experience enters to 12th month, system will automatically calculate it as completion of 1 year and points will be granted. So, it's normal.

I received my ITA on 12th April, based on 2 years worth of work experience, although my 2 years won't be done until 26th May. I had the following questions.

1.) Should I accept this ITA or wait for an ITA after 2 years are completed?
2.) I spent one work week (Monday-Friday) in August 2022 in Pakistan doing wfh. Do I need to add another week to compensate for this?
3.) In my profile I have not shown any foreign work experience, just shown a continuous canadian work experience from May 2021. Is this wrong? Do I need to show that 1 week of wfh from Pakistan in it?

Any help would be hugely appreciated!

Yes you should wait for your work experience to be completed.
Yes you have to compensate for the time period worked outside Canada.
Yes you have to clarify about the time period spent outside Canada.

Thank you, so does this mean I break up my work experience into two? Also,do paid vacation days outside Canada count?
