hi everyone,
I have a few concerns that needs to clarify.
I have finished my last course in college in August 23, 2019 and then i started working full-time since then until i apply for my post graduate work permit in Nov 18,2019, Due to some problem with the course credential with the college so i did not get my graduation letter until Nov 18, so technically i am still in school.
I am about to apply for my 1 year Canadian Experience class
how the full-time experience with those periods count towards my PR?

You can only start counting Canadian work experience from the day you applied for PGWP.

In EE profile? No, since you won’t be able to claim points for that.
In PR application? Yes, as part of personal history.

Thank you very much for your answer. I worry that I started working there more than 20 hours while I am in school for couple weeks? In the employement letter, would I ask my employer to mention only from the day I applied for PGWP to End of employment?

Were you legally allowed to work full time during that time?

Employer should only put start date when you submitted your pgwp application

I am allowed to work part time before November but I might have work a bit more than 20 hours. They provide me with a letter stated that I worked full time from when I applied for my PGWP to the end of employment.
