I am an iOS Developer having 1 year experience (45hrs per week, 2340hrs per year). I want to apply for Canadian Express Entry. In Canada a full time one year is (30hrs per week or 1560hrs per year) but i have (2340hrs per year) experience. With respect to this calculation, the only one thing I want to know is that whether my 2340hrs work experience of one year is equal to Canadian 1.5 year or it will be equivalent to only 1 year experience?

Canadian full time one year (30hrs/week)= 1560hrs / year
My full time one year (45hrs/week)= 2340hrs / year

My work experience equivalent to Canadian = 2340/1560 = 1.5 year

For Express Entry, whether my work experience is 1 year or 1.5 year?
Please help me to figure out this problem.

Sorry but it'll be counted only as 1 year of work experience.

Two things to mention:

1 - This is one year of work experience.
2 - You cannot count more than 30 hours per week - right now you're counting 45 hrs/week which is incorrect.

[Federal Skilled Workers]

Age(26yrs) - 12
Education(Master-Computer Science) - 23
Language Skill(English - CLB 8) - 20
Experience(1yr) - 9
—————————————————————
Grand Total = 12 + 23 + 20 + 9 = 64

Why don't you try FSW EE with one year of work experience.

For FSW, minimum 67 points are required but my score is only 64 points. That's why i can't try for that.
