Hi, I have 1 year of work experience. However, I have 6 weeks vacation during this 1 year work experience. Would that be a problem for the 1 year experience requirement?
6 weeks vacation of the 1 year experience
- Thread starter canexpress
- Start date
It would be different as a reasonable period of paid vacation can be counted as part of your work experience.
Since this is unpaid you cannot count those 6 weeks of vacation as valid work experience.

Thank you for your helpful reply. Would it be acceptable if I work this missing period over the one year experience (1 year and 6 weeks in total) and then apply for iTA?
Depends, are we talking about Canadian or foreign work experience? That is, are you a CEC or FSW applicant?
Under FSW, Your work experience has to be continuous for at least one year.
Depending on when you took that break, you might have to work a lot longer before you can qualify.
