Hi all, I have a question about OINP FWS stream job experience calculation.
In short, can I conbine the work experience under the same NOC but from different companies together? Those work experiences are not consistent, and from different countries, though they add up to 2 years.
Based on the policy, I can count my foreign work expereince and they can be non-continuous. Here is my case: I worked as an full-time intership during May 2020 and Jun 2020, and worked full-time for the same role at another company during July 2020 - Apr 2021, there are 2 weeks gap between these 2 jobs. Then I just accumulated 15 months canadian work experience. Can I use all of the work experiences together to meet the OINP Foegign Worker Stream requirement?
I will post the related policy below. Any thoughts will be appreciated, thanks!

2. Work experience or legally required licence or other authorization
You must have gained this work experience within the five years prior to the date you submit your application, not the date you received the invitation to apply. If your work experience was gained in Canada, you must have been legally living and working in Canada.
Cumulative means the work you’ve done must add up to two years – it does not have to be two years of continuous work.
Full-time work experience means working in a job with at least 30 hours of paid work in a week that amounts to at least 3,120 hours of paid work over a two-year period.
