I am an Architect aspiring for July 2012 FSW application. I have more than 7 years of full time Work Experience in my field and have done my Masters in Architecture.

However, from last 2 years, I haven't been working since I delivered a baby and so chose to spend time with him. This made me take a break from my career. I wish to not work for coming year and then I can anytime get back. Will this affect my selection decision for FSW? Do they need a continuous experience or is the break in career considered? I have a vaid reason to justify my break.

Any replies will be helpful.

Under current rules I think it should not be a problem as long as you have one year of full time employment in one of the 29 occupations, which it seems like you have. I had breaks in my employment due to childbirth/child rearing and graduate school. Just document it in the application. Good luck.

Ya, I think you'll do just fine. The requirement is that, you have at least one year of continuous full-time experience within the last 10 years, so as long as you meet this (which you certainly do), then you should be fine.
