part time foreign work experience while studying

[andrei92]

Hi, i'm wondering if part time work during study will count as a foreign work experience. When i was on my second year of study in Russia i was working in NOC B ocupation part time. I couldn't find any relevant information or any similar case, though extra year of experience will add to my crs score.
Any help much appreciated.

Foreign work experience gained during full time study will count.

Canadian Experience gained during full time studies doesn't count under the Canadian Experience Class. But there's no such limitation on the FSW class.

And proof of that would be pretty much the same as for any other foreign work experience, right?
Now, If i never ever mentioned that fact before (because I thought it's irrelevant), would be there any issues if i will mention it now?

Yes, it's just work experience, all the same rules apply.

When you say you didn't mention it before, what do you mean? Have you already received an ITA? or are you going to update your profile to get some more points?

But no, it won't matter if you didn't mention it before and you add it now. Nothing wrong with doing this.

I mean, when i was applying for student and work permits, i mentioned that i was studying at that period of time. I have not recieved my ITA yet.
