Would someone be helpful for me to understand how to calculate work hours under CEC? This is my scenario

Employer 1: 2022 Sep 7 to 2023 Sep 29th (worked part time outside Canada from Oct 8th - Dec 1st)

Employer 2: 2024 June 24th to 2025 July 27th

As per my calculation until July 24th I have 104 weeks (excluding outside Canada work)

So the hours amount would be 104x30=3120

Would I be eligible to claim 2 years CEC experience on 24th July? My PGWP expires on 27th of July. When should I accept the ITA (IF I get that let's say in July hopefully) and submit PR application and then submit BGWP? Is it possible without a dummy extension?

With 2 years CEC experience 528 score, if I claim 1 year only it's down to 515

Any suggestion is helpful

Thanks

It's not possible to say based on the information you provided. Here's how you do the calculation properly.

- For each week you worked 30 hours or more, count this as 1
- For each week you worked fewer than 30 hours, add up the total number of hours and divide by 30
- Add the two numbers above together. If you have 104 or more, then you can claim 2 years of work experience.

hi, for all the weeks I have worked full time more than 37.5 hours. So the number 30 won't be an issue
but, IRCC calculates by week or can we consider days too? Which means if I worked 2 weeks + 3 extra days, do I need to disregard that 3 days?
I have total 733 days worked (including holidays and weekends of course), which would be 104 weeks+3 days
as per IRCC 52 week rule, we need only 728 days
I am just trying to figure out whether I am completing 2 years before the expiry
