He said somewhere between 480-485 with ~2500 ITAs.

There is a draw today. CIC agent just told me :D

Makes sense! How would you interpret this? An allowance for a reasonable period of vacation time will generally be made in calculating the period of qualifying work experience (e.g., a two-week period of paid vacation leave within a given 52-week period in which the applicant was engaged in...

Similar situation. CWE for 2 years and 20 days... in between went on vacation twice for 66 days, All vacations were paid in full supported by pay slips. Any idea?

I am getting mixed reviews and not sure how to go about this! What would you do? Also for CEC, does education qualification have to be exactly the same as listed on NOC category? I did engineering but worked in technical sales and as a consultant... Please advise

That's the safest option I believe. However in my case the end date cannot be altered as I don't work there anymore and my work permit is already exhausted.

Thanks! Anyone else?

Hello all, I am looking for expert advise regarding my situation. Presently I am active in the Express Entry pool with a CRS score of 499. I am showing a total of 2 years and 20 days (May 2014 - May 2016) of Canadian work experience. During this time, I went to my home country for vacation on...

Hi legalfacon, I have CWE of 2 years and 20 days. During this time, I went on vacation twice for 38 days and 28 days each time (total 66 days). All vacations were paid in full with supporting paystubs for that period. Will CIC count this as experience? If not, then do you recommend reducing my...

INTENDED STAY

What if it's one month/year paid vacation for two years? So in my case, I have 2 years and 20 days CWE and 64 days of paid vacation supported by payslips! Will this be counted or not?

I agree! better safe than sorry.

Not doubting your intention buddy but always better to quote the right source. Cheers!

Agreed you dont have to submit payslips when you have a solid reference letter but in my case, I traveled to my home country for the whole time and it will be revealed in the personal/travel history. Hence, it will be better to be proactive in explaining any suspicion it might create.

Seems like it all depends on the officer you get and how well you can prove your claim. Providing pay slips and a well written LOE might suffice. Called CIC and as always the agent re-directed me to the web form as the answer is outside of her scope of knowledge.

Really dude!? It's like calling a person a murderer when he says "I killed a bug" - just because "I killed" is there. Read the full headline before quoting a source. Just from observing on this forum, it's best to be as clear and utterly honest as possible. Good luck!

Not sure about your unpaid ones though. Btw, your source is misleading - it's for care givers only. CEC/FSW/PNP does not explicitly say anything about it. LOE would be a good option but is it worth taking a risk!?
