Hi all, a few questions regarding calculating work experience..

My info:
  • After 2 yrs college course graduation, submitted for AGWP on May 19, 2017 (received it in July)
  • 1st Job(NOC B): From Mar 27 - Nov 20, 2017 (Total ensurable hours: 1112)
  • 2nd job(NOC B): From Apr 9 - Dec 21, 2018 (Total ensurable hours: 1344)
  • Had to take work off for 3 months(Jan - Mar 2019) of parental leave for new born baby. (the company reserve my position until I come back)
  • From Apr 1, 2019 until now, I've been working full time for the same company. (approx. 240 hrs so far)
  • Until now, total working hours : 2696

Questions:
  1. For 1st job, I started working from Mar 27, but I submitted for AGWP on May 19, 2017. Then, how should I calculate 1112 hours from the 1st job? Is it all counted? or have to deduct some hours? If so, how many hours should be deducted?
  2. For 2 years work experience, I need 3120 hours and 2 years of work.(so, I need 424 hrs more) In my situation, if I work for another 424 hrs (2 or 3 months, that would be this July or August), would I be eligible for applying 2 yrs work experiences into my Express Entry score? If not, when would I?
  3. Do they credit any hours from the period of parental leave?
Would be much appreciated, if someone can answer my questions.

Thanks,
