My husband is applying for pr , I was a student in canada and I was working full time (NOC 2) job during that period , and did my Co-op in the same organization.
Can I consider this as spousal work experience for PR File. ?

Nope. Co-op and work while you were a student don't count. And how could you work full-time while you were a student? If it wasn't legal, you definitely shouldn't mention that.

Besides, spousal work experience doesn't give many points and it should have a certain TEER.

And thankyou for replying ! I am just falling short of 2 points from the last draw. So curious if I can add my work experience as 2 years and increase the points!
