Hi

I've close to 15 years of work experience. I shall commence my Canada PR Visa Processing starting 20th May 2018.

With respect to my work experience I've changed a few jobs in the past 15 years. All my previous employers are providing me with a referral Letter except the first one as that's not really a listed company. I worked with this company for 5 years.

I'm able to get a referral letter starting June 2009 till date with all companies I've worked with. With my first company , I started working with them in May 2004 till April 2009.

Question 1) Am I required to avail of a referral letter from my first company (May 2004 till April 2009) as well to attain maximum points under the criteria of work experience or showing a referral letter from my previous employers starting June 2009 till March 2018 suffice me in attaining maximum points ?

Question 2) My first company doesn't have a professional set up. It also doesn't have a Human Resource department. I've reached out to them but they're very adamant and are not willing to share a referral letter. I've, though reached out to my superior in my stint with the first company for a Superior Declaration and she's willing to provide me with this letter. She isn't working for my first company anymore and is with another organization. At the same time is it compulsory for her to provide me with her Business Card ? ? She doesn't have a Business Card from her current organization, yet.

- you will get points for maximum for recent 3 years of work ex.
- If you can't provide ref letter for first 5 years, please explain it in Letter of Explanation - LOE. Feel free to add any payslip or other related documents as a proof but for sure no need to worry about not having a ref letter.
- Don't worry about business card too.

HI

Firstly, thanks for your revert. As I mentioned earlier that this company doesn't have a professional set, I wasn't provided any salary slip, either. The only thing I've have is a Relieving Letter and an Experience Letter.

Question 1 ) Do I need to show my experience from May 2004 till April 2009 at all considering you mentioned that the Canadian Authorities will only consider the recent 3 years work experience so I reckon my initial work experience (May 2004 till April 2009) doesn't hold any relevance. kindly correct me if I'm wrong.

Question 2 ) If I'm to provide an LOE ( only if required ) does it need to be on a legal paper or is it just any other LOE submitted from side ?

Awaiting response...

- Both these documents are good.


Question 1 ) Do I need to show my experience from May 2004 till April 2009 at all considering you mentioned that the Canadian Authorities will only consider the recent 3 years work experience so I reckon my initial work experience (May 2004 till April 2009) doesn't hold any relevance. kindly correct me if I'm wrong.

- You can avoid this particular work ex in work/employment history.
- you need to show this in your personal history (where proofs won't be required) only if needed. They ask for past 10 years of personal history.


Question 2 ) If I'm to provide an LOE ( only if required ) does it need to be on a legal paper or is it just any other LOE submitted from side ?
- It's not a legal document. It's just and option you have post ITA (invitation to apply) where you have option to upload this document. You can write it in word doc and upload it as pdf.

Awaiting response...

Ans in bold.

Hi

Yes your replies on my queries should put rest to my concern. I'm going through a reliable IRCC PR Agency in Mumbai and they have mentioned quite categorically that I will be requiring proof of my previous 10 years experience for PROVINCIAL NOMINATION.

Is this true ?

I am not sure about provincial Nomination process.
My answers are based on my experience with Express Entry.

It's better we wait for experts to reply here.
