Hi,

I have a quick question regarding what counts as 1 years Canadian work experience. I started my first role on 4th April 2017 and worked there for 6 months. I then had a week's break before starting another role. I was in that role for 8 weeks before my dream job came up and moved to that company. I had 3 days in between those roles. All the roles involved working more than 30 hours a week.

My question is does that count as 1 years experience seeing as it is now April 17th? I have worked a total 1,840 hours but not concurrently and not for the same company.

Does this still qualify as a 1 years experience?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Yes assuming the NOC's of all those 3 jobs are 0,A or B.

As mentioned in delpiero07 post, if the NOC category of the jobs is - 0 or A or B and if the experience letters from the 3 companies adds up to 1 year (i believe companies mention the duration in months and not in days), then you are good.

but to be on safe side - i would suggest you to exclude the paid sick leave days and vacation, when considering the 1 year period for express entry system.
