Eligible Work Experience for PR

[AK1994]

Hi All,
I would like to know how work experience is calculated for PR(or express entry profile). I am in Canada on Mar 10th 2022 but My official payroll started from April 1 2023. So Ideally If I calculate till April 1 2024, I will be completing one year in Canada.
But In Jan 2024, I went to my home country for a 4 weeks due to emergency, But I was working from my home country without any leave.
So will I be eligible for 1,560 hours of work experience (because my payroll was still in Canada) ??

Kindly help me with the question above.

Thank you

You cannot count the four weeks outside of Canada as Canadian work experience. You need to have worked an additional four weeks in Canada to claim one year of Canadian work experience.
