Senior Manager Category- Canada Experience Hours Calculator

[indianguy_toronto]

Hi Team,

I am seeking clarification on how to calculate the 12-month Canadian work experience requirement for the Senior Manager category, specifically regarding frequent travel outside Canada.

Here is my current situation:

• I have been employed as a Senior Manager by a Canadian company for 15 consecutive months.
• I am on the Canadian payroll, working 40 hours per week.
• Due to the global nature of my role, I have made several business trips outside Canada during this time, including one 4-week personal vacation.

Could you please educate me on the following?

1. Calculating the 12-month requirement: How do trips outside Canada affect the calculation of the 12-month period, even if I was working for a Canadian company while abroad?
2. Hours vs. Months: IRCC guidelines require either 12 months or 1,560 hours. Given my situation, how do I accurately calculate if I have met this requirement?

Thank you in advance for your guidance.

What do you mean you made up hours? You cannot count more than 30 hours a week even if you worked 60 hours a week.

And be careful with a Senior Manager NOC, it's not only about your job title, it's about your duties, salary, employer, etc.

Thank you for this caution. I am clearly above in these criterion. Only looking for suggestions on the questions mentioned in the original post.
