research assistantship in PhD stream

[kodm]

Hi,

I completed two years of PhD in Canada. So, I can apply for PhD stream, but I still need to have minimum of 67 points. I have a research assistantship for my funding support. Can you help me if I earn points with the resrach assistantship as work experience?

Thanks

Hi kodm, why don't you try posting on the PhD stream thread? We have answer to (hopefully) all of your questions there And indeed, several pages of discussions regarding whether or not TA/RA (NOC 4012) only experience will be accepted by the CIC.
