I’m planning to apply for the Federal Skilled Worker Program, but I have 1 yr 9 months of full time experience in NOC A (code 2173) and 1 yr of full time experience in NOC B (code 2282). Can I combine these two and select 2 years of total experience in the Federal Skilled Worker Program points calculator (the one where 67 is the minimum required score)?
Also, what about PNPs? Can I do the same for those applications as well?

Yes as long as you have one year of full-time continuous skilled work experience.

I started filling out the form just to check eligibility, and there is a question
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.
So, here, what should I put? Because it says "only one occupation". If I put 1 year here (based on my current job), I am not eligible for express entry.

Use NOC A as you state that you have 1 yr 9 mos.
