I'm having trouble filling up the work history section in the application form. I don't exactly remember the dates/months of my employment, I can guess but I literally have no idea until which month I worked with which employer. As I was a new graduate I was working multiple jobs to survive and I don't remember which month I quit which job.

What can I do in this situation? Do the dates have to be accurate? Can I guess? Do I need to provide proof of my employment? Because I don't have any other than my T4 slips which doesn't mention the time period.

Is there anyone who can help me out with this?

I had multiple employers at certain times of my eligibility period. I listed only the most significant (highest source of income) employer for each period.

If you did not keep your pay slips or unable to even come close to the start and end dates for each period of employment, it is probably best to contact these employers and ask them for these dates to assist you in your application. Any payroll department will have these dates at their fingertips. Hope that helps.

Thank you for your response. I did try to contact with them but all those jobs were odd jobs in restaurants and some of the places are closed permanently. I contacted them but they are not responding. I just guessed a time and put that in my form. During my employment I wasn't getting any pay slips, just paychecks, and I do have my T4s, it's just doesn't tell from which month to which month.

Do you think I should write an explanation letter? Cic website says if you can't remember the dates, use your best guess, I hope I used my best guess, it's been so long and I had multiple jobs that I don't remember which ones I had when
