Hi

I worked as a casual LPN which means my hours of work each weak differ from 8 to 40+.

I started working from last year April and till now gained 1700+ hours. During that time, I worked about 40 hours per week for about 5 months, the other weeks I worked varying hours.

I didn't know that more than 30 hours per week would not be add up to my 1560 hours... Is that true for casual employee like me??? If that is true,,, I lost 200+ hours,,, and still not qualified for CEC...

How does CIC count my weeks and hours when I submit my application?

Also, does training count as work hours?

Yes you can only count a maximum of 30 hours per week towards the 1560 hours quoted by IRCC. Total the number of hours each week (max 30 hours in any week) divide by 30 and round down. When you get 52 weeks equivalent work that your 1 year experience. You can submit payslips to IRCC as evidence of hours. Paid training hours would count that appear on a payslip should be fine.
