Hi,

My husband had a part time job while he was on Student Permit for 20hr/week. It was increased to 38hr/week after he graduated and got his PGWP. Are the part time hours while he was on study permit counted towards the 1560 hours requirement? I understand that IRCC will count only up to 30 hours/week. I think he'll still qualify coz he worked there for 14 months. 3 months part time and 11 months full time hours.

Work experience should in essential categories and NOC code should be in the list.

Work experience
You need 1 year of work experience (at least 1,560 hours) in the past 3 years. Unlike your current employment, which can be in any job, your experience needs to be in one or more eligible occupations.

Your work experience must include

  • most of the main duties and all the essential duties listed in your National Occupational Classification (NOC)
  • the activities listed in the lead statement of your NOC

Yes his work experience is on the list. I want to know if the hours he worked while on study permit will be counted to the 1560 hours needed to be eligible.

I think that he is eligible because they didn't mention any perticular permit for work, just had to be worked those hours.

Hi everyone,

I am currently on a Study permit applying under Tr to PR and was confused on how to calculate my work experience under an essential non-healthcare occupation. I worked a total of 1700hrs in required NOC but out of those, two jobs were for a period of 5 months and one was in 2020 for 9 months in total.

Can anyone guide me on how to exactly count hours?

Help is highly appreciated here.

Thank you

Hey all,

I have worked 900 hours in WALMART Canada, from June 2019 to October 2020, and currently working as a CNC machinist from December 2019..
My Question is Can I count working hours of current employment to add in to 900 hours to complete 1560 till date ?
and, does anybody got reference letter from WALMART Canada. because they are saying that they have to wait until decision made by Global management Team.

Please help me out thank you
