I would like to ask, I returned to my country of citizenship during the Covid, and even though I enrolled in four courses from May-August 2020 (considered a full-time student), I started working full-time in August, and by September-December 2020, I only have one course left before I graduate. Will this work experience be recognized as overseas work hours in Express Entry - Canadian Experience Class? Thanks!

It is foreign experience yes. Are you applying under CEC and if so, when was your Canadian work experience.

Thanks for your replying. My Canadian work experience does not overlap with my country of citizenship, the Canadian work experience starts in October 2022. I am wondering is there any citation I am able to quote for my explaination letter from IRCC website. I received ITA on Feb 5th, and currently preparing my documents.
