Qualifying work experience for express entry

[Ram1992]

Hi People,

I'm currently in Canada on a work permit since october 2016. I was reading through the requirements for express entry and found that under the section qualifying work experience it says 'Full-time” means at least 30 hours of paid work in one week. One year of full-time work is at least 1560 hours.'.

My contract with my current company is 40 hours per week. Does this mean that i can qualify for the points in 39 weeks itself? 1560/40 = 39 weeks?

Kindly advice.

Regards,

Ram

No.

You also have to work for a period of one year.
