Is owning a business count for PR

[drsamu]

So I have 3y pgwp and I need at least 12 months of work experience to get PR. I own an e-commerce business that generates 6 figures in sales monthly and I wanted to know if owning this online business and paying my taxes in Canada can replace that 1 year of work experience.
I don't have Canadian employees or office. My apartment is technically my office.

You can count this as work experience towards the FSW program and apply through this program once you have a full year of work experience. However this will not count as work experience under CEC since you are self-employed.

Yes, it will count. But the process is a bit different. Do you have the idea about the process and point structure?
