I have one question about the working hours requirement:

If during some period (for about 2 months) , I was holding two jobs at the same time: One full time job (worked 37.5 hours per week) and One part time job (worked 12 hours per week)

I was wondering if the working experience gained from both of these two positions can be count towards the 1,950 working hours requirement, i.e 49.5 hours per week is count toward meeting the working experience requirement for that two months.

Thank you in advance
 
Check out section 6.4 in h t t p : / / w w w .cic.gc.ca/english/resources/manuals/op/op25-eng.pdf

....
.....
......Experience can be calculated by adding up the number of weeks of full-time work, i.e. 37.5 hours per week
in one job or a total of at least 37.5 hours per week in more than one job, in one or more
of the NOC categories.

I would rather suggest you call up CIC to get more details

Thanks

37.5 hours or 49.5 hours, it is still only 2 months

Note that regardless of hours, you still have to work a minimum of 1 year (12 months) in the Post-Grad stream, or 2 years (24 months) in the skilled worker stream. The "full time equivalent' in hours is for those working part-time who have to work LONGER than the minimum (1 year/2 years).
