Hi, I am holding the three-year post-graduation work permit and working as a part-time bookkeeper now. I have two part-time bookkeeping jobs and the average working hour is about 34 hours per week, which still count as part-time. Also I was told that it is extremely risky if I use two part-time jobs to apply under Canadian Experience Class even though my total hours and job title meet the requirements of CEC. So I want to know if it is too risky to submit the application by the two part-time jobs?

Thanks for anyone's reply.
 
Not an issue working two part-time jobs. Keep all your paystubs and a record of the hours you worked. This will come in handy when you want to apply. Note that you must work for at least 12 months AND have at least 1950 hours before you are eligible to apply.
 
IT DOESN'T MATTER IF YOU HAVE MORE THAN ONE PART TIME JOB, AS LONG AS YOU FULLFILL 1950 HOURS IN A YEAR UNDER SKILLED CATEGORY A,O , B AND C, YOU ARE GOOD TO GO!!

But I read the CEC Webpage and it says that a Canadian post-secondary institution with at least one year of work experience and work experience must be gained within two years of the time you applied. So in theory I can use more than one year to gain the work experience if I am a PT bookkeeper. Am I correct here?

Yes - this is fact, not theory :)
