Hi aka024,
Sorry to hear about your rejection. I guess I'm in a similar situation myself. For a short while between my off-campus work permit and my post-graduate work permit I was also under implied status. The work experience gained during implied status definitely counts towards the total. I do wonder, however, if your vacation had a role in the rejection. Can you share some more info on your situation? When did you go to India? When did you come back? Do I understand correctly that your previous work permit expired on Oct 10 2010?
