"Yes, just don't get lost with these vacation days and foreign experience, that would be a real misrep." - Could you please elaborate more on this? IRCC anyway doesn't expect us to share the exact dates right? Also all my work was completely paid and I can prove that through the payslips for those months as well (40 hours/week throughout the year).

Also just curious, how does IRCC know about vacations in general and whether someone has taken them or not because my passport obviously confirms I left the country on June 21 but how do they know whether it was paid vacation or foreign experience? All they are concerned with is 104 weeks in Canada right? Also to be more safe, should I get a letter about this from my employer?

You will need to show the exact dates in your reference letter, your travel history, personal history etc, it's all cross referenced very easily.

The vacation is okay if it's paid and approved and no more than 2 weeks a year.

Personal history just expects month and year
Travel history is only supposed to have countries you visited other than your home country.
 
Hi All,

I am little confused on the hours calculations. Could someone clarify my below questions:

1. Do we need to satisfy both 365 days and 1560 hours conditions? Or either one of them?
2. I work for 40 hours every week. I do take work trips outside Canada. For example, I flew on Tuesday morning 7am, and returned back on Thursday 9pm.

For 365 days calculations-> Tuesday and Thursday are in Canada? Or Outside of Canada?

For hours calculation, can I still count 30 hours in Canada for this week? Mon-8, Tue-8, Wed-0, Thurs-8, Fri-8. Max 30.
Or Mon-8, Tue-0, Wed-0, Thurs-0, Fri-8. total 16 hours?

Which one is correct? I want to file the application today. So will appreciate if someone can kindly educate me? Do not want to kill my chances of the PR by providing incorrect details to IRCC.
