You must have at least 12 months of full-time, or an equal amount in part-time, skilled work experience. Full-time work means at least 30 hours of paid work per week.

You just need to satisfy two criteria:

1. 12 months of full time work.
2. Also satisfy 1,560 hours in a year with 30 hours/week maximum.

Remember even if you worked for than 30 hours a week, you cannot use the extra hours to offset the less hours on other weeks.

To simplify your calculation, what you can do is calculate the full-time equivalent (FTE), add up all your part-time hours and divide by 30.
For e.g., if you worked 28 hours per week for 10 weeks, that is 280 hours. Divide by 30, the FTE is 9 weeks. Add that to the number of weeks you worked full-time. You need a total of 52 weeks to qualify.

You can get it either way. I tried to get it from India but they needed a letter from Canadian immigration and also attestation from Indian consulate in Canada. Also, a letter of request from me. But with BLS-canada, I just had to submit the application along with my passport, copies of passport pages, a photo and a copy of work permit (but there are others who had to provide the original work permit as well, check with BLS for a confirmation). I felt the paperwork was much easier for pcc from BLS-Canada.

It costs about 55 bucks to get it from the Indian consulate in Canada, through BLS-canada: http://blsindia-canada.com/. As per their website, the processing time is about 4-6 weeks.

PCC cannot be issued more than 3 months before your application is received by CIC

There is no rule, at least to my knowledge, that you have to get it only from India or Canada. As long is it is a genuine document you are well off with either of them. If I were you, I would go through the one that is faster, easier and hassle-free.

You are right, but please avoid reference to "total number of hours" altogether to avoid all these unnecessary confusion.

As long as one satisfies the following 5 criteria, they are good to go:
Make sure...

1 - its 1 year
2 - its 52 full weeks as well
3 - wait 1 more day
4 - never worked less than 30 hours / week
5 - all vacations were paid

Add that vacation duration should be "reasonable."
