Hello,

I know there are more threads regarding this but none of them answered my question.

I started my current job in 3rd of January 2019.

I have an agreement with my employer that I will switch from employed to self-employed (within the same company) from January 2020 (probably 1st of January?)

So, while there's not a gap and no change in employer, I switch from employed to self employed.

I'm interested if that still qualifies me for Ontario PNP, the website says the following

Work Experience Requirements
Federal Skilled Worker Program

Candidates who choose to be assessed against the Federal Skilled Worker Program (FSWP) criteria must:

  • Have at least one year of continuous, full-time employment experience, or part-time equivalent, in a National Occupation Classification (NOC) Type/ Level 0, A, or B occupation in the five years prior to the date of the NOI from the OINP;
    • Full-time work consists of at least 30 hours of work over a period of one week in one job and consists of at least 1,560 hours of paid employment in one year.
    • Continuous work means there are no gaps between periods of employment. Work experience may consist of back-to-back jobs with the same or different employer(s) (with no gap in between), but at least one year must be in the same National Occupational Classification (NOC) occupation as the primary NOC declared in the Express Entry profile.

What do you guys think?

Thank you
