WORK EXPERIENCE FOR EXPRESS ENTRY.

[ENORM123]

Hello,
I did all my studies here in Canada and I am applying for my PR through express entry. I have completed 1.5 years in a job and 2 months in another one with a 20 days gap in between. Taking into account only the 1.5 years job I have accumulated enough hours for 2 years in terms of 1560hrs- 30hrs per week for a year as per CIC. I just do not know that even if I have completed more than 2 years' worth of hours I can update my profile n put it as 2 years now r I have to physically wait for two years. Please if anyone could help me it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

How could you have accumulated 2 years of experience in 1.5 years.
At most you can count 30 hours per week. Anything beyond 30 hours doesn't count.

What I was looking for is that I understand one year is recommended but after is it number of hours worked divided by 1560 hrs or physical years passed?
Thank you

It is physical years passed if you work more than 30 hours per week. If it is less than 30 hours per week then you do 1560 hours is 1 year of equivalent experience. But you can't count any week for more than 30 hours.
