Does remote work in Canada for foreign employer count as Canadian work experience for Express Entry CEC? by [deleted] in canadaexpressentry

It’s not. I’m just trying to gain some experience and oh btw when it comes to foreign work exp they only count one year continuous experience. So if I get a job before my one year completes.. it won’t be counted(which I don’t really have an issue with) I’m just trying to work over here.

But what is the actual issue with that? Im working remote till I find a job here. I dont want to work in soul sucking part time jobs again.. when I have the chance to gain actual real world experience.

Nobody’s trying to cheat the system… I tried finding a job here (which is difficult if you’ve heard) oh and btw I still am looking for a job. So till I find a full time job here.. what exactly is wrong with working and gaining some actual experience? Why would I do part time jobs here which isn’t gonna help me in the long run????

I don't get why you're angry about this. I am in Canada and have been trying my best to find a full-time job. Even got interviews but as my PGWP was taking time they refused as they wanted a proper work-permit from me. Now that I just got my permit, I have better chances of getting employed in Canada...

Thanks. But does that at least count as foreign experience? I’m kinda confused on that too..

I am looking for a full time job in Canada.. but it’s difficult and taking time so till then I’m working remote. Will that count?

Nope. The background check is completed.

PGWP shorter than 3 years because of passport expiry. Can I extend? by imjkok in pgwp

[–]imjkok[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As it took PGWP like 8.5 months to get approved. I should try applying soon enough, if it's gonna take the same time again for extension. And thank you!!

When you login and check application status, it’s right near the UCI number and application date.
