Yes, I am aware of that. When you google “immigration lawyers in Toronto”, there are so many. I contacted about 20 of them and maybe I got to speak to 7 of them. As you know, some of them are willing to provide a free consultation over the phone or in person and that is why I got to speak to the lawyer that I am about to see. We spoke over the phone for about 25-30 minutes. There were a few lawyers who are willing to see me in person for no cost but the thing is I have to wait… but I need to get this resolved sooner than later.

When I spoke to 7 lawyers, I gave them the exact same scenario. But only a few can understand the core issues… I got two lawyers through the lawyer referral services and one of them was really dumb. He said, “I will tell you what. You won’t get it because there is no way you can prove that you worked 37.5 hours per week!” Dah~

The lawyer that I picked sounded trustworthy and quick to understand the core issues.

Hope he is worth the money.

Count all the days from Aug 17th, 2009 - Jan 25th, 2010. It's 165 days total or 23 weeks and 4 days to be exact. Here's how I got it:
35hrs per week at company A, your hours are: (35hrs x 23wks) + (7hrs x 4days) = 833hrs
To get the equivalent in months: 1 month = 4.3 wks to be exact
If 35hr worked in 1 week, then in 4.3wks(i.e 1 month), 4.3 x 35hrs = 150.5 hrs will be worked.
If 150.5 hrs = 1 month in work, then 833hrs/150.5hrs = 5.5348 months in work.

For company B: 37wks and 2 days
So (35hs x 37wks = 1295hrs) + (7hrs x 2 days = 14hrs)= 1309hrs
if 150.5 hrs = 1 month in work, then 1309hrs/150.5hrs = 8.6976 months
Adding up hrs or months from both companies, you qualify. The problem is that the lady said you worked 25hrs/wk instead. It may be worth getting another letter from this lady or better yet, have Human Resources do it as they have more experience with this. Your MP represents the people and can make calls about immigration matters. Goodluck and let us know how it goes.

Hi
I am in confusion for my work experience duration. Are they calculating by total hours per annum?? or Total months worked? as my case is bit different.
