Hi,

I have one year of work experience in Canada (Started on the 13th of January and ended on the 29th of December). I worked 37.5hrs a week. Is it still considered one year of work?

Any replies would be appreciated


THANKS

No, it won't be.

The requirements for one year experience are as follows:

1. Calendar date - e.g, Jan 1 to Dec 31

2. You need to have minimum hours per week. This is the secondary requirement.

You meet the hours (minimum 30 hours/week) requirement per week, but you do no meet the number of weeks (52 weeks) requirement to be considered. So you will not be eligible for CEC.
