MPNP-Problem with years of working experience

Hi,

I currently work in Winnipeg and applying for MPNP. I have a problem about working experience that I am afraid that they will reject my application.

I had worked 2.5 years in Japan. Of these, 2 years I had fellowship from Japan government (I didnot have to pay income tax and the award letter did not indicate it is a full-time job). Therefore, when I submit the EOI, to answer the question " How many years of full-time work experience do you have in the past 5 years?" I answer "< 1 year" because I am afraid that the 2 years fellowship is not counted as full-time job. However, when I submit the application, there is a question "Number of years you have worked in your intended occupation in the past five years", I choose "2 years" because there is no "full-time" in the question.

First I think it is OK because I only got point for < 1 year. If they consider my 2 year fellowship is a full-time job, my point even increase. However, it is not consistent because I answered that I have worked 2 years in my intended occupation in the past five years.

Do you have any suggestion? should I withdraw my application and submit a new one. I have waited 4 months and am afraid that if they rejected, I have to submit a new application.

Thank you very much,

Good luck to all of us.
