Hi everyone,

I have worked at a full time job for NOC (B) 1311 from March 22,2021 to May 31, 2021. Then started a new job NOC A (2171) from June 14, 2021 to present. I have applied today for express entry CEC. in terms of hours, II have worked much more than the required 1560 hours. But in terms of days, am i correct? based on my math this is exactly one year and maybe one day of work. considering i removed the two weeks gap between the transition of the old and new job

Should I leave one more week buffer just in case? or i am good?

You're good.

You should look into PNP programs too. We don't know if / when CEC draws will restart and what the scores will be once they do.

We are all just stuck hoping CEC opens again lol. The CEC backlog had 10k people in March 15 2022, down 5k from Feb 1 2022 where it was 15k.
There is some hope that it could reopen this spring looking at this progress, but no certainty and no idea if it opens combined with FSW or whatnot.

Most graduates will only have a score of 475 maximum if CLB is 12 and Canadian degree, FSW will be 600+ which will make it harder for inland CEC apps to get in.

Check under "Economic class immigration"

It seems positive to me but lets see
 
I actually have the same question.
EE system asks for start and end months, instead of days, of your work experience.
Theoretically, if one starts working on Jan 31st, and ends on Dec 1st, he worked only 10 months + 2 days, but in EE system he can enter that he worked from Jan to Dec, which is 1 year work experience and makes him meet CEC requirement.
Is this correct? What if the PR officer sees it differently and reject the app?
