Hi Al,

Thank you for your answer. Just to clarify in regards to my second question. So, six months of Foreign work experience obtained in 2019 + plus another six months of Foreign work experience now in 2025, WILL NOT trigger the additional CRS points in the “Skill and transferability factors – Canadian work experience + Foreign work experience”?

I know this work experience won’t qualify him for the “Federal Skill Worker program” as for that, he will need 12 months of “continuous” work experience, but he is looking to apply for the Canadian Work Experience. When I tested this scenario in his EE profile (two sets of six months of foreign work experience), it did give him the extra 50 CRS points because the system summarized a total of 12 months of foreign work experience but I am afraid that If we were to submit this in the future, they may say, it has to be continuous to count and get his PR rejected.
