Does CIC count the experience gained after the graduation and before the PGWP approval (i.e. experience gained on implied status) towards the Canadian experience or CEC ??

I know that many members applied in such a scenario but not sure if there is any success story....

Yes, this question has been asked several times already. This is literally the first result in google.

I don't see any reason why that experience will not be counted.

You already graduated from your university = no longer a full time student. The process of getting a PGWP is just a formal procedure.

Thanks Alexios07.....
That's exactly what I think that it should be counted....I just want to make sure and see if someone has got the PR with such a scenario....
