Hi,
1. Does anyone know if online work experience counts for foreign work experience for EE?
I have a years of online work experience. I worked more than 30 hours a week for a company that is located in my home country(outside Canada) while I was in Canada. I also have another couple of more years of the same online work experience with the same company when I was living in Malaysia (which isn't my country of origin where the company is)
For some time of it, I was going to school while working for them.
2. Would that be still valid if I was a student at the time while working, in both countries?
The company is providing a copy of my initial offer letter that includes: pay, hours, title and responsibilities.
3. I was wondering, what would be the other possible documents they could ask for, for proof?
4. Also does anyone know if we get higher score for having foreign work experience that are under 00 or A noc code to compare with B?

Thanks for your help in advance

1. Any work experience gained while studying in Canada cannot be counted towards Express Entry. If you gained any of this experience while not studying in Canada it can be counted as foreign work experience provided the company you worked for can provide employment letters and you can show pay stubs.
2. See above.
3. See the Express Entry section of the forum.
4. No - you won't get more points.
