I worked three years in India. Is it required continuously on a full-time basis to become eligible for Federal skilled Worker class?

In order to be eligible under the federal skilled worker category, your skilled work experience must be:
– in the same type of job (have the same NOC) as the job you want to use for your immigration application (called your primary occupation)
– within the last 10 years
– paid work (have been paid wages or earned commission—volunteer work or this means you must unpaid internships don’t count)
– at least 1 year of continuous work or 1,560 hours total (30 hours per week)—you can meet this in a few different ways:
- Full-time at 1 job: 30 hours/week for 12 months = 1 year full time (1,560 hours)
- Equal amount in part-time: 15 hours/week for 24 months = 1 year full time (1,560 hours)
- Full-time at more than 1 job: 30 hours/week for 12 months at more than 1 job = 1 year full time (1,560 hours)
