Can I count 2 month school break for CEC

[maamesewaa]

So I work as an Educational Assistant (EA) for 30hrs/week in a school division. It's Teer 3 job. The school will be on break from June 30 to 1st September. This period of break is unpaid for EAs, even though I'm still employed by the division.


Can I count this towards my Canadian work experience for Express Entry?

No. Only on PGWP.

You aren't working and not being paid so no. You count time that you actually work and are paid for. Assume you go on EI.

I won't go on EI. Does that make a difference? Or regardless of EI I still cannot count it?

No. You are not working nor being paid. You cannot count experience for a job that you are not doing.

Thanks for clarifying
