Hello everyone,

Please help me :

Below is my work experience history - All my experience is away from Canada

June 2011 - May 2013 - 1 year and 11 months - NOC 2172
2013 - Dec 2015 - MBA Gap
March 2016 - Apr 2018 (Current job) - 2 years 1 month - NOC 2171 (will apply for EE profile in April)

What should be my response for the below question? Is it 2 years or 4 years?
Does it affect my CRS score? or Is it only for checking whether i am qualified under FSW program?

In the last 10 years, how many years of skilled work experience do you have? It must have been continuous, paid, full-time (or an equal amount in part-time), and in only one occupation.

Thanks,
Praveen
 
4 years for CRS purposes.

2 years for eligibility purposes under the six selection factors of the FSW program (assuming NOC 2171 is your primary NOC).

Thanks for your response. It does not specifically say whether it is for FSW or CRS purpose?
Pasting the question again for your reference -

Below are the options to select:
1. None
2. Less than 1
3. One
4. Two to Three
5. Four to Five
6. Six or More​

I am confused whether I should select Option 4 or Option 5. Yes NOC-2171 will be my primary NOC.

Attaching a screen shot for your reference.

That questions seems to be assessing your eligibility under the FSW program (six selection factors).

Answer two to three.
