Hi Friends,

I am changing jobs. My last working day with current employers is Friday. And Start day with new employer is Monday.
So there is a gap of two days in my Employment history.
Will it cause any problems.

Since the two days may be considered as Not continuous.

Anybody faced any issues with similar situation.

What does and does not count as "continuous" is at the discretion of the VO, but I think that 2 days will definitely not be a problem.

I thought this is very common. It its making me nervous.

I read somewhere in this portal that even if you are not employed now, if you have three years continuous exp you can apply for EE.

What are these rules, I am confused and nervous.
Please if anyone faced this kind of issues reply here.

For FSW, criteria is:

at least 1 year of continuous work or 1,560 hours total (30 hours per week). You can meet this in a few different ways:
  • full-time at 1 job: 30 hours/week for 12 months = 1 year full time (1,560 hours)
  • equal amount in part-time: 15 hours/week for 24 months = 1 year full time (1,560 hours)
  • full-time at more than 1 job: 30 hours/week for 12 months at more than 1 job = 1 year full time (1,560 hours)
Reference: https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/immigrate-canada/express-entry/eligibility/federal-skilled-workers.html#skilled

If you already have 1 year or more continuous experience, it does not matter if there is any gap between jobs after 1 year.
