Work from Home (Virtual) and FSW

[Canadream2017]

Can a continuous virtual full-time job be counted towards the 1-year full-time work requirement for FSW stream?? The company is based in Abu Dhabi and I also lived in Abu Dhabi for a while before I moved back to my home country (but still working full-time virtually).

By virtually if you mean remotely, then yes, it counts.

yes remotely. My work visa expired but employer wanted to keep me for a while so we agreed to work it out this way.

Do I have to mention this on my application? Has anyone ever applied to PR using remote-based Job experience?

Thanks

Also, does the 1-year requirement exclude weekends & public holidays?

Explain the job location change in a letter.
Usually they consider number of hours per week. Check this:
