Hi,
I want to apply for express entry. I need 1 year experience to be eligible for it. My question is on my work permit there is 2 dates written one is (Date Issued : 2016/02/26 ) and other is ( In Force From : 2015/08/07 ). So from which date my 1 year experience of will be counted. Thanks.
 
i think it will be effective the date it was issued to you, unless someone with more experience here say otherwise.

i have a question for you .the date "( In Force From : 2015/08/07 ) " do you recall this date ? is it the date you applied or got a confirmation email on your cic account about for you work permit ?

because i have asked this same question(excluding the ( In Force From date) on here before and someone advised me that our actual experience starts from the date our work permit is issued to us. :'(

That is not correct. Your work experience starts with your first day on the job, and ends with the last. This information must be in your employer's letter of reference.

So actually what happened was i got my work permit on date issued which was 2015/08/07 but there was date of birth error. So i got it corrected and the new date of issued was 2016/08/07. But my expereince will be counted from my first work permit issued that is 2015/08/07.
 
when it says in force your experience count from date 08/07/2015. they corrected date that is why the reissue it. you can confirm from CIC. if you find me correct please give me good feedback
