Hello all,
I started my Job on July 1st 2015. This coming July, my work experience will be 1 year. I also fulfill 1560 hours works. However, I was in 1 months vacation, didn't work and didn't get paid?

As I didn't work for a month, would CIC count my experience as 1 year on July 1st, 2016. Or I have to wait one more month. Pls advice
 
Please can someone answer this question because i am in the same situation. Had like a month break of work with no pay within 1 year of working. But i have already clocked 1560hrs.. will my experience still be clocked 1 year?

The answer is in your question only..

Your experience has to be atleast one year without one month break and whole work experience should be paid. Then only CIC will accept it as valid work experience.

your one month leave period doesnt matter as long as u complete the 1560 hours criteria. Dont worry most of the companies in middle east also give out paid leave

Don't misguide people with bullshit.

Unpaid leave doesn't count.

Don't be too focused on the magic number 1560. You need 52 weeks at 30 hrs/ week minimum and you cannot make up for it by working extra any particular week. Understood?!

Thanks for your reply. So I have to work one more months to count as 1 year experience right.

Yes, You need at least one full year of working full time. But CIC accepts paid vacations as 'working full time'.
 
52 weeks with 30 or more hours each week is 1 year of experience.
