Eligibility to apply for PR through Express Entry

[Creeper Roy]

Hi,

I am confused, little help will be appreciated.

After getting PGWP, my work history in Ontario

May 2019-Jan 2020 (Employer A)
Feb 2020-April 2020 (Employer B with the same B Category position). I have been laid off due to COVID-19 at present.

I complete 1560 hours.
I have biweekly 21 paystubs.

Question :
1) Am I eligible as 1 year experience???
2) I went to India for 2 weeks in the month of October and in US for 2 weeks in the month of December . and I have 1 month gap between 2 jobs : Does it affect?

1) No, you are not eligible. You must have at least 52 weeks of work experience where you worked a minimum of 30 hours per week.
2) Yes, this impacts and means you have to work longer to get hte full year of work experience.
