Hi, could you please help me in determining whether we need 24 months as a two year experience to get more points or it can be altogether achieved in 22 months?
As i have seen people completing their experience as started from lets say April 2017 and considered as 1 year experience in March 2017 (similarly for 2 year experience started from April 2016 and considered as 2 year experience in Feb 2018).
Does this work like this?

Please assist.

2 years means 104 weeks. If u r shy even by 1 week u r not eligible to claim 2 years. Each week u have to have 30 hr or more totaling of 3120 hrs.

With that being said a friend of mine had 99 weeks of work experience only and he got his PR.
