Reporting Foreign Work Experience for Express Entry

Hi everyone,

I moved to Canada in 2021 during the COVID-19 pandemic. When I applied for my study permit in early 2020, I had 1 year and 2 months of work experience in India, which I included in my application. Due to delays, my permit was approved 6 months later, by which time my work experience had increased to 1 year and 8 months.

As I'm now creating my Express Entry profile, I'm unsure how much foreign work experience to report. Should I include 1 year and 2 months, as stated in my study permit application, or the full 1 year and 8 months? I have all the necessary documents to verify the 1 year and 8 months, but I want to avoid any perception of misrepresentation by IRCC.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
