Can I apply by working only 10 months but 40 hours/week?

[tp_marina]

CEC says I should have at least 1 year full time work experience in Canada, which is 1560 hours. If I work 40 hours a week during 10 months, meaning 1720 hours, am I eligible to apply?

The system asks whether I have "more than a year" or "less than a year" of work experience in Canada. It doesn't calculate this time based on months and hours worked per week so I have no way of knowing.

CIC counts full time as 30 hours/week

If you have more than 30 hrs/week, it counts 30

So no, you will need a full calendar year to count a year, doesn't matter if you work 80 hours a week.
