Dear experts,
Currently, I am creating profile for Express entry and have to answer a few questions to verify my eligibility. I possess 4+ years of work experiences. I can say NOC is same for 4 years but i have worked under 2 different companies. I have doubt in filling answers for below question in eligibility assessment.

"In the last 10 years, how many years of skilled 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. "
Options are:

A) None

B) Less than One

C) One

D) Two to Three

E) Four to Five

F) Six or More


My work details are given below:

Job 1 - Nov 2013 - Jun 2016 (NOC-2171)
Job 2 - May 2018 - Present (NOC-2171)

In between my two jobs I completed my MBA degree (Jun 2016 - Mar 2018) and hence the gap in my employment. But Both my jobs are in the same NOC.

Could you please help me understand which option can I select given my situation? Though, my combined work experience is more than 4 years, it is not continuous and I am confused what to select. Please help me!

Thank you for your reply!

I am still confused if I can enter 4 to 5. The question clearly states that the work experience needs to be continuous but I have a gap in between. Can I still combine my work experience and put it as 4 to 5? Please explain. Thanks again

At least 1 year of experience has to be continous. You can select 4 to 5.
