Hi guys,

I have 6+ years of work experience. I have a question about filling my 8 months contract job. When filling details in EOI for this job, I gave working hours per week as 40. But for some weeks, I worked less than 40 hours per week due to holidays and leaves, and these were unpaid.

In my reference letter, my manager confirmed that I worked 40 hours per week in my employment. Will this be an issue?

Not an issue. Hours per week means when there are no holidays or leaves or anything.
One is suppose to count hours per day * days of week.
So if you have worked for 5 days in a week it will be 5x8 = 40 hours.
Leaves and holidays are not considered for this calculations.

Hey all

I have just given my IELTS and scored 9 9 7.5 & 7 in L R S W. Now I am confused about my work experience that which one will be counted and am I eligible to apply for express entry. I am an MBA and passed out on March 2013.

1. April 2013-October 2013 - Worked as a research analyst with ICICI Securities.
2. October 2013 - November 2014 - Worked in my family business which is a proprietorship in the name of my dad. I didn't draw any salary from there, so not documented proof.
3. Deceber 2014 - October 2015 - Worked with ICICI Bank.
4. December 2015 till today - I started my own mutual fund consultancy, advising clients and selling mutual funds. We don't raise any bills and the commission earned is credited to my account every month by all the companies whose products I sell.
5. April 2016 till today - Along with my mutual fund consultancy I became a partner in my family business where I am drawing a salary every month in the records. The salary isnt credited to by bank but is added to my capital and its mentioned in the partnership deed also.

I would like to ask if I am eligible for express entry and if yes then how should I proceed. Which work ex to show in the profile.
