Guys
I am a PhD student in the US (from India on a F-1 visa in the US). I am about to graduate and looking in to PR in canada. In http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigra...lled/index.asp it says "You have at least one continuous year of full-time, paid work experience or the equivalent in part-time continuous employment."
does working on your PhD count towards that. I get paid as full time graduate student. does that count?
Also can i apply right before graduating or do i have to graduate and then only apply to qualify for advanced degree. I am asking this because if i apply 2 months before graduating by the time the application is processed I would have graduated. I also have a MSc from India. would that qualify for the points.
thanks a lot guys.
