AINP Semi-skilled "Be employed for 6 months"

[showmethemoney]

Hi. I am working in Alberta as a housekeeper, and about to apply for AINP.
In their eligible candidate description, "Be employed at least 6 months before applying to AINP".
I have total 3 years experience, abroad (2 and half years), in canada (9 months).
I worked in Banff for 9 months as a housekeeper in 2011.
Now, I'm working in other motel in Alberta, and just started.

In this case, am I eligible to apply to ANIP?
One of my friends told me that she applied with previous experience (different owner and business), I want to make sure as I have to wait for 8~12 months before I get the result.

Does anyone have any idea or experience for this?
Please help me out!
Thanks!

I have same profile, worked 1 year and a half abroad and 2 in Canada in hospitality and I applied in January. So as long as you have the reference letters with the dates then it should be OK. I say should because with immigration, nothing is for sure.

I'll take an English test and apply as soon as possible!
