Hi

I got extra points on my EE profile for my part time work experience which I gained during my full time study in UK. Just wanted to confirm with experienced users that can I really claim these points as Im aware that part time work experience gained during full time study in Canada is not counted.

Hope they dont reject by application for that reason.

Thanks in advance for your reply.

How about full time experience outside Canada? Are there any people who got away with this?

Yes, you can get points for full time experience outside Canada as long as it was paid and done in the last 10 years.
 
I have nearly 3 years of full-time (40 hour/week) experience working in US under NOC 2161. But it isn't quite 3 years (2 months short), but the 3 year mark will give my CRS a massive +25 point boost. So I was wondering if I could count part-time (20 hour/week) work I did as a Graduate Research Assistant while getting my PhD in the US.
