Confusion regarding work experience

[niki.chawla1]

I'm not sure. You might be able to get a declaration from you employer that you were paid in cash, but that may not be enough.

Well, from what I understood - if a experience letter and letter of joining is provided as a proof it should be enough, right?

A reference letter alone should be enough.
But in theory, CIC can ask for any additional documents they like.

If you have another 9 months that will add up to an extra year, then yes.
If you only have 15 months, total, then no, don't bother.

Ok Thank you makes sense.

Yes. Work experience can be in multiple NOCs, as long as at least 1 year of your experience was in a single NOC.

Hi Istari,

Thanks so much for the reply. However I still have one question. The Comprehensive Ranking System Tool states the following -
How many years of skilled foreign work experience do you have? It must have been continuous, paid, full-time (or an equal amount in part-time), and in only one occupation.

So since after my first job of 33 months, I pursued an MBA for 2 years and then again started working in a different role for a year, does it still count as 4 years ? (because as per above condition it isn't continuous 4 years)

i know I am being repetitive, however would really appreciate if you could clarify my doubt.

thanks

The question is very deceptive.
Members of this forum have proven through repeated success that only 1 year of your work experience must be continuous.
As long as that condition is met, all other work experience can be in multiple NOCs, and non-continuous.

Sorry I have another question. Can a full-time unpaid 3 months internship be counted in the work experience??

No, it must be paid.
