Hello Everyone!

I wanted some advice on my current situation. I am on PGWP with 1 year of Canadian Work experience on Teer 1 job. I completed my bachelor's from a Canadian University and I have CEC 468 points with my IELTS. So my question to everyone is, during my 1st and 2nd-year summers, I worked in a foreign country outside of Canada full time for 4 months each. I have worked remotely for the same company uninterrupted part-time for 8 months. I was in Canada when I completed my 2nd year in the same Teer 1 job title/ responsibilities for the remote work experience. Am I eligible to claim foreign work experience points under CEC? [ side note: I have proper reference letters, and I am able to show paystab during the period. ]
Additional Question: I also had a gap year before coming to Canada after graduating from high school for 1 year, but I gained experience in a Teer 2/3 job, which is not my current profession. Does this make me eligible to claim points?
Finally, I have previously been invited through the International Student Stream, but my employer refused to provide me with an employer form, So I am trying my best to figure out a way to gain points and seek a path to Permanent Residency.

Any sort of help or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
