I have read the application guide in the government, and it's kinda confusing.
They said it's 1 full year (full time or equivalent part-time) / 1950 hours.
But they didn't say have to be from one job.. I know if it's different noc code, it cant be combined,
just want to know if it's the same job noc code, can that be combined?

Thanks

Pre-Assessed..
acquired at least 12 months of full-time (or the equivalent in part-time) skilled work experience in Canada in occupations that fall under Skill Type 0, or Skill Level A or B of the National Occupational Classification (NOC),

Anyone who says different noc's can't be counted, should point all applicants to where this is stated.

As long as its skilled work that falls under noc 0, a or b, and the experience totals 12 or more months ft employment, you should be fine.

different employers, different NOCs - doesn't matter. If it is skilled employment in Canada, and it meets the other requirements, you can count it.

And Wilson - your information is outdated, requirements changed on January 2, 2013, please go to the CIC website and get the new forms, instructions, etc.

Should not be a problem as long:
a) You have worked 1 full year after you graduated,
b) All of them fall under proper NOCs.
c) You have up to date reference with all required information from all of the work places.
