Hello All!

This question might have been answered before but all the cases are unique in its own way. Any help is graciously appreciated!

My scenario:

A. 6 months of work experience from 2018 August to 2019 February in closed work permit in NOC code 2173. Contract ended in February 2019
B. 6 months of work experience from March 2019 to September 2019 in open work permit as my spouse was attending college. job duties equivalent to NOC code 2173.

If I add the full time min 40 hours work week, I have 54 weeks of experience.

C. In September 2019 I joined full time in Data Science and Analytics 1 year MSc. degree from a reputed college in Ontario. I will pass out in September 2020.

My questions:
1. Can I claim 1 year job experience while creating my express entry profile as I have claimed experience letters, stating similar job duties and continuous full time 40 hour/week job from both companies? Will I get points for Canadian job experience even if they consist of two jobs?
2. Once I pass out and claim masters degree points and Canadian education points, can I still claim work experience points as it was before my post graduate degree consists of two different jobs with similar duties?

Now I could create an express entry profile now, but my points would be around 435-440 so do not see much option before completing my Masters degree.

Experts - Kindly help.

Thanks!

I am not sure what this means. You need a minimum of 52 weeks of FULL TIME work experience. Without exact dates, we cannot confirm that you have met that requirement.

It does not matter what type of permit, and you can certainly acquire the experience with 2 or more jobs.


C. In September 2019 I joined full time in Data Science and Analytics 1 year MSc. degree from a reputed college in Ontario. I will pass out in September 2020.

Please don´t pass out before you graduate : )

2. Once I pass out :p and claim masters degree points and Canadian education points, can I still claim work experience points as it was before my post graduate degree

Yes.
