Hi,
I am an IT professional with 2.5 years of experience. I worked in India and Europe. I came to Canada in 2017 on student visa. Recently, i have completed my 2 years of post graduation. Right now i am on post graduation work permit of 3 years which is getting expired by 2022.
Right now, i am working as a Mobile Application Developer instructor for 25 hours a week.
I have checked cic website and it is saying that, in order to apply PR, you have to work 30hrs a week for 12 months. 30 hours/week for 12 months = 1 year full time (1,560 hours)
Do i need to work for 24 months or until i reach 1560 hours?
Thanks!

If you are only working 25 hours a week, then you need to work 63 weeks before you'll have a full year of work experience for Canadian immigration purposes. So yes, you'll need to wait until you have 1560 hours to claim a year.
 
HI i have the same question
My job reference letter says that my status is full time but it is mentioned that the minimum hours / week is 25 hours. so is this considered part time or full time?
Also if i work a minimum of 30 hours a week for 52 weeks will I be eligible or should I have to work 25 hours a week for 63 weeks to get 1 year (1560 hours) of work experience?

25 hours is part time. 30 or more hours is full time.

If you work a minimum of 30 hours each week, then you will have a year of work experience in 52 weeks.

If you work 25 hours per week, then you need to work. 63 weeks to count this as a year of work experience.
