If you create a profile without meeting the year of continuous full-time work experience then your profile will automatically be deemed ineligible. That is, your profile won't be in the pool.

Basically work experience is:
TAship in the same Canadian university for the following periods
Jan 2015-Apr 2016
Aug 2016-Oct 2017
average weekly hours: 13 approx
Total hours: 1600 approx

Would the break from May-Jul 16 affect eligibility? Is it okay to create a profile with continuous work experience and on receiving ITA, submit a letter of explanation regarding the break?

Unless you're a CEC applicant the break in continuity will affect your eligibility. I do not have enough information to answer your other question.

Oh no! Do you know if TAship experience counts as work experience in CEC?

I know a few people who have succeeded in getting PR with gaps. Well, bulletin is expired ( archived and will not be updated). I have gone through all bulletins from 2006 to 2018. There is no further modification in law.

Good day all. I started working March 2018 but my appointment letter is dated 8th January, 2018. My payslips also state March 19th as the date of appointment rather than January because that was when I started getting paid. Which one of the dates should I use when filling my Express entry form since I'm not submitting a reference letter for this job?

2. Should I enter the pool in January or March to avoid being banned for misrepresentation?
