Can my work experience during the gap period be considered as full-time for visa purposes?

It depends. For Canadian student visa purposes, work experience during a gap period is only considered full-time if it was formal, paid, and supported by proper documentation.

- Internships or training are usually not counted as full-time employment - they are seen as skill-building.
- Formal, full-time jobs with clear evidence of your role, duration, and relevance to your field may be accepted.

Clearly explain your gap period and provide supporting documents for any full-time work experience.
