Well, I'm little confused about my work experience. Please help me out.
I had variable contracted hours in my last job which is both part time and full time. Moreover, during the first couple of month my job I was in training period and in the experience letter it is stated as trainee Assistant manager. I will provide part of the letter below:

These are the contracted hours. I have worked extra hours which does not reflect in the letter. But got the payslips to prove.

06/06/2011 to 27/11/2011 - Trainee Assistant Manager 20 hours per week

28/11/2011 to 27/01/2013 - Assistant Manager 20 hours per week

28/01/2013 to 29/06/2014 - Managers Assistant 30 hours per week

30/06/2014 to 25/04/2016 - Managers Assistant 20 hours per week


It's the same role only the name has changed.

My first question: Does the training period count as skilled work? If it does count can I count my experience as 3 yrs full time? In this role everyone has to go through a training period.
Second question: If it does not count can I show the extra hours during the last 9 months of my work through payslips which is more than 40 hrs per week altogether? In that case, can I count as 3 yrs full time?

Thank you guys ever so much:)

Hi everyone
please I need help. I recently qualified for Canadian experience class and I've been trying to create a new express entry profile but every time I finish the come to Canada tool, I get redirected to the main CIC page instead of express entry profile page.
I can't find the express entry button anymore in my CIC account.
Is anyone experiencing the same thing??

Nah.. you are safe.
Do you have any salary slips? If yes, furnish such slips. CIC want's to know that you are paid for your work, garner any documents to substantiate that point.

Along with reference letters, add any document which claims you are paid.

Some of us corporate employees couldn't even garner reference letter , as our employer didn't comply with our request. We are providing affidavits and other documents which add claim to our work experience. ComparTe to us, your case is less ambiguous :)
Thanks a lot for quick reply...

I have a statement of fellowship paid throughout the year (One letter/Year) on official letterhead which mentions cheque details/date (Verifiable from bank statement) for all the three years. Also, I have published research articles in various international scientific journals which, have mention of my post and affiliation with the organization that I worked with. I am thinking of providing them the hyperlink for the same.

Will it work???

Thanks

Hi guys,
Please help me on my below which getting bigger and bigger in my mind.

In my previous work permit application, i claimed for 2 years retail supervisor experience but Immigration officer didn't approve this as he checked my previous study permit application and couldn't find this.

That time i was misguided by an agency, not to show in order to approve study permit application.

Now i m ready to make my file for Permanent residency and really confused why should i write in past 10 years employment history section??

Should i include this or not?? i have few documents to prove this as that was 7 years old experience.

does this point to be a reason for rejection for my permanent residency application??

Now i m making my application on basis of current 3 years work experience(claim points for 3 years only) and I'm not claiming any points for that previous experience neither i got any advantage from that experience.

Should i mention this in my personal history details?

Please guys , i really need advise on this as i m stuck with this since a month and need to get rid of this.

Thanks in advance

Any one guys!! Seniors please share your thoughts on this..this will help me and others who's facing the same problem!!
Thanks

I dont think training or intern experience counts as work experience.

thats a difficult question to answer - can you not show 40 hrs a week for the last role starting from 2014-2016 ?
Thank you guys ever so much:)

I have only worked fulltime in the last 9 months. So I can't show show 40 hrs a week for the last role starting from 2014-2016.
I just wanted to find out how to calculate the hours on a variable contract.

28/01/2013 to 29/06/2014 - Managers Assistant 30 hours per week - 1.5 months
July/August 2015-April 2016 more than 30 hrs per week - 9 months

If I add these up that's around 2 yrs 4 months fulltime total.
Then I just need 7 months of fulltime eqiuvalent to 14 months part time. Rest I have more than 2 yrs of 20 yrs experience. Which can easily add up as 1 yr fulltime.

Am I right calculating like that? Or is there any other way?

Can anyone else help me out who got experience in calculat
ing working hours?

Thanks in advance:)

One more question. In my last role while I was working part time I was Enrolled as a fulltime student. Does the work experience count while I was a fulltime student for FSW?

Thank you

Hello Everyone,

First of all I would like to say thanks to everyone here, and special thanks to tis website developers for creating such a wonderful and helpful site.
my query is regarding some information for the process. I have already started the process through one of the immigration agents in India.
The following are my achievements.
I score 400 CRS points as per my agent.
My Ielts score is 6.5 Overall, I have tried Ielts twice and now don't want to give another one, as I have seen the least requirement was 6 or 6.5 overall on some websites
L:6.0, R: 6.0, S: 6.5, W:6.5.

What are my chances to get into pool, can please someone suggest me what should i do. I am really upset as I am not getting proper feedback from the agent.
Thank you.

Your language scores are good enough but whether you meet the eligibility requirements or not for the FSW program that's something you must figure out.

http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/apply-factors.asp

Calculate your score manually, if you're above 67 points you might be eligible to enter the pool.
