Dear All and Asivad Anac,

I need some help guys in interpreting my scenario before submitting my application.

I submitted my thesis on 31-Oct-2014 to the department. After thesis submission, graduate students automatically get deregistered for that term since course requirements are completed. Meanwhile, I was waiting for my thesis defense date. I had my thesis defense on 20-Jan-2015. I have been given 1 month to correct spelling mistakes and grammatical errors in my thesis. Then I submitted my thesis with minor comments on 21-Feb-2015 and I received my "Statement of Degree Requirements Completed" on 23-Feb-2015 from the University. Finally, I applied for the post-graduate work permit on 24-Feb-2015. My study permit was valid till 31-March-2015 . But the date issue of PGWP is on 2-May-2015.

I started working part time for 20 hours from Nov-2014 to Feb-2015. Then in March-2015, I received a full-time contract job.

3 scenarios:
a) Eligible to count the experience from the first day of the contract (1-Nov-2014), I was not a student at that time but on study permit.
b) Eligible to count the experience from the day I applied online for Post Graduate Work Permit (24-Feb-2015), completed my masters but on study permit till 31-Mar-2015.
c) Eligible to count the experience from the date issued on the Post Graduate Work Permit (02-May-2015)

My questions are:
1) Which of the above scenario is correct for counting the Canadian work experience?
2) Will the above work experience from 01-Nov-2014 to 24-Feb-2015 count towards Canadian work experience for CEC?
3) Will the above work experience from 01-Nov-2014 to 24-Feb-2015 count towards Canadian work experience for FSW?
4) Will the work experience from 25-Feb-2015 to 01-May-2015 count towards Canadian work experience for CEC?
5) Will the work experience from 25-Feb-2015 to 01-May-2015 count towards Canadian work experience for FSW?

I need to know when I will complete my 1 year of Canadian experience. That will change based on the above dates.
