Wait.. This is scaring me!!! I am going to be claiming points for my one year work experience from 2015 to 2016. I worked after that too but it was mostly NOC C jobs as I was doing my masters in Netherlands.

I will get my reference letter, my salary certificate (cuz I was paid in cash) and I still have a few payslips left too! But I don't have tax returns. I will cry if my PR gets rejected because of this after busting my behind for years learning French and getting a masters.
This work ex you're referring to, is it from your time in Netherlands or India? Even if you got paid in cash, if your employer actually hired you and it wans't an under-the-table transaction, they paid witholdig taxes on your salary and it's likely you can get information from the tax authorities about the witholding taxes you paid for that job...

It was in India. Backstory is that I used to study and work in Canada and couldn't get my PR due to EE being rehauled. My work ex in Canada was NOC C so no use of claiming points for it.

I came to India. Intentionally took a lower paying job in higher NOC code. I don't know if they will share the tax information with me. Indians in general are quite cagey when it comes to tax issues.

If I submit a letter of reference, my salary certificate certifying that I was paid in cash, plus a couple of salary slips that I still have, will that be enough? Or will they push for tax returns? Initially I thought it was okay because I have most documents but if I write an LOE, will that solve the issue?

They must have deducted TDS on your salary. You need to check your past Form 16A and past Form 26AS on the online portals of Income Tax Dept.

These are the portals:
https://eportal.incometax.gov.in/iec/foservices/#/login
https://www.tdscpc.gov.in/app/login.xhtml

You don't need cooperation from your employer at all. Register for an account at both portals (if you haven't already) and check the information the tax authorities have for the year you seek info for.

I see, thanks for response! I didn't know about it. I will check it once I find my salary slips.

In case there is nothing there, does that mean I'm screwed? Will this work be considered as non existing? I hope that's not the case because I specifically took that job because the duties were in NOC B.

Otherwise, I guess I would have to find another job but it would be such a shame to have that work experience go to waste because I was too naive to go through the details..

Hello,

EE-FSW-O.
ITA 03 Aug.
AOR 05 Aug.

In the balance certificate that I got from my bank, the banker mentioned all my accounts, their numbers, their dates of creation, address, number, signed, stamped, everything except a tiny thing.

In the current account and the savings account, he did not mention the type of currency (Algerian dinar), he just noted the exact amount in numbers, except for the foreign currency account, the banker expressed that it was in euros. (see photo, in french but you can understand)

On the other hand, in each 6-month account statement, it is clearly mentioned that the current account and savings are in Algerian dinars and of course, the exact same amount of money indicated in the balance certificate is present.
These documents have already been sent.

My question is, is this a problem? if yes, what should I do?

Thanks.

Do you have enough in the Euro account? I hope I didn't misread your post, but seems to me that you didn't get an equivalency to international currencies of the amount you have in Alegerian Dinar. If your Euro account has more than enough above their cut-off, I don't think it matters, but if you have to combine accounts, then I would suggest that you have a new letter and make sure that the amount specified in Alegerian Dinar is converted to CAD or USD etc... with the day's prevailing exchange rate. Make it easy for the officers, they'll be more likely to reward you ;)

Hoo Lee Sheet !

That is a lightning fast application. I thought I would set a record in applying for PR, but I don't think I can beat your 48 hours.

P.S.
You don't need to do anything. When your time comes and if they need an explanation or a new bank statement, they will ask.

Yeah, I've had everything ready, except the POF, but it seems I made a mistake ....

Unfortunately, I need to combine all my accounts to get the required money (around 14k). I guess I have to get new documents to avoid any problems or rejection :[

Folks who did soft landing from US to Canada via Land, would you be allowed to stay for couple of days in Canada to apply for SIN and come back to US? Also, can we return to Canada via road from US permanently later (in a month) without PR card or PRTD?
AFAIK, you should be able to re-enter Canada with just your signed COPR + passport if you enter by your own private vehicle or by foot. Make sure that you finish the customs paperwork the first time you enter.

Would u mind please helping me with some questions please ??

** on the PCC part ? Which pcc did u sumbit ? Electronic ? Or hard one ? If the latter which process did u follow ?

For the bank statement according to me it is fine .
If you gave your last month bank statement with DA on it will be fine for sure.

** Did u made your médical visit upfront ? In which clinic ? And how do u think the link will be made between your application and the clinic ?

Thankkk you sooo much

Hello,

For the PCC, I sent the hard one. You will need your birth certificate, residence certificate & 30 DA stamp (timbre fiscal).

Yes, it was an upfront visit at SMC - Saha Plus.

Good luck with your application.
