Hello everyone.

When a PR applicant has a combination of full and part time work experience how is this treated?

For example, if someone works a 42 hour week, it is my understanding that only 30 hours can be counted and this is classed as 1 week.

If the same person then works for example 16 hours second week, 8 hours third week and 24 the fourth...are these part time weeks added together 16+8+24 = 54 hours and this becomes a second week? What happens to the remainder hours if this is the case?

Following on from this point what happens to the remainder hours (i.e not a full week) at the end of a job, are these discarded or can they be added to the next job to form another week?

I have read through various threads and have found some interesting explanations, but no official IRCC/CIC document or clause that confirms the actual methodology used by officials to assess the Canadian work experience element of the applicant.

Thanks
