How do you count the part-time experience hours

[Nadia275]

Hello everyone, I need assistance from your side, please help.

Okay so I have a full time job experience of 14 months (NOC is fine) which means I'm eligible to apply, no issues there. I get 68/100.

But when it comes to CRS score, I get a mere 456 with my 1 year work experience, meaning I will not make it in the draw anymore.

Since such is the case, how can I add my part-time work (NOC is fine) experiences (I worked in these jobs after graduation before getting the full time position) so that I get a total of 3 years? The job experiences for me right now look like this -

1. 14 months of full time job - 40 hours/week
2. 7 months of part time job - 20 hours/week
3. 15 months of part time job - 24 hours/week

If I add these up, I get 36 months or 3 years, but does CIC count it the same? Are the part time hours counted only as half (So 7 months is actually 3.5 months?)? Or are they based on hours? Counting the hours I do get my 3 years but is that really the case?

Getting the 3 years will actually make or break my situation, as then I reach 481 in my CRS. This is why I'm so confused about this whole thing. Please suggest what I should do or if I have any hope of getting to Canada at all.

Thanks and take care

It's based on hours and you can count up to 30 hours a week. Roughly speaking, you need about five to six more months of full-time work experience to be able to claim three years.
