Points Claim for Work Experience-Hours/week or calender wise!

[shb]

Hello all,

I have one query and I need experienced people to please advice.

For work experience, how does one calculate his experience (30 hours/week = 1440 hours = 1 year ) according to Canada???

I work around 47 hours/week (mentioned in all appointment letters), so do I calculate my number of years based on hours/week or calender year wise in order to claim points.

I would highly appreciate if you could guide me in this regard.

Thank you.

You calculated it based on calendar days. So it doesn't matter if you worked 30 hours in one week or 60 hours - it's still just a week when calculating your experience points.

Ah i see.

So what about part time work?
How does one calculate that ?

I used to work part-time as well (20 hours/week).

How to add this in the total number of years worked?

You calculate part time work experience separately from full time. For part time you would add up the hours you have worked and divide by 30 to see how many weeks you get.

Got it.
Thanks.

But will I need to show any experience letter etc as proof for my part-time work?

Yes, if you wish it to be counted.
