Hello,
I am a graduate assistant at one of the Canadian universities, and I have been working as a graduate assistant for 5 years, which is equivalent to 1 year of full time work.
I have no problem immigrating to Canada, but there is one thing that I am concerned about:

I have few months of gap between each academic year that I worked for my department, because the university didn't allow me to work as a graduate assistant sometime during the summer breaks.
Will I still be able to immigrate? I am concerned because I know that my work experience has to be 1 year of "continuous" work experience.

I already called the call center but they wouldn't help me with it.
I also looked up in OP 6 and it says that "break in continuity due to an anticiapted short breaks between employments are acceptable"

Can somebody here help me?

thank you
