Hi all,
I found very limited reference to this. I am applying for Express Entry FSW. Official website says that RA/TAship experience as a student can be considered as work experience provided it is CONTINUOUS. I did my PhD in the US for 6 years and I was consistently employed as an RA/TA over Fall-Spring semesters (9 months) over these 6 years. However, over the summers, my RA/TAships were sporadic (sometimes 0 months, sometimes even 1-2-3 months), as my University often does not provide funding to PhD students over the Summers. I already received ITA but am curious if this will prove to be problematic.
Cheers!
