Hi all, Is the calculation of my 1560 hours of skilled work experience for CEC below, correct? I received my ITA based on 1 year of work experience. My calculation shows that I do meet the 52 FTE weeks. Can someone please confirm if this is the way IRCC does the calculation?

Job 1: Part-time (variable hours per week)

Duration: 63 weeks of part-time work over a stretch of 78 weeks.
Sep 1, 2020 - Nov 30, 2020: 200 hours (no weeks over 30 hours)​
Jan 1, 2021 - Mar 31, 2021: 200 hours (no weeks over 30 hours)​
June 1, 2021 - Jan 31, 2022: 630 hours (no weeks over 30 hours)​
Feb 1, 2022 - Feb 15, 2022: 90 hours (45 hours each week - meaning 15 hours from each week will NOT be counted)
Total hours: 1120 hours
Total FTE weeks = (1120 - 30) / 30 = 36 FTE weeks

Job 2: Full-time (35 hours per week)

Duration: Mar 1, 2022 - Oct 7, 2022​
Total weeks of full-time work: 31 FTE weeks


Total FTE weeks = 67 weeks (meets 52 FTE weeks for EE)
