FSW: work experience

[jamilnasir]

hi all,
I have questions regarding work experience.
I have nine years of working experience but there is a gap of six months where I had to look for work. Right after that, I got a job that I switched in about six months.
As per my information, a job of under twelve-month duration is not acceptable. Does this mean that I can entirely exclude that job from my experience record while applying for FSW program? And, if I do, would it be considered as concealing facts and may even cause in rejection of my application?
Lastly, does an applicant also have to justify the gap period between different jobs, like I had a six month layoff period?
Regards

It's perfectly fine if you wish not to include it in the work history section, once you receive your ITA you must include this job in the personal history section but no proof of employment will be required.

Thanks!
One more question, would I need to have my wife's educational documents assessed, i.e. ECA, in order to gain points on her behalf?
