Hi Guys

So im one of the rejected PR applicants whos NOC codes did not match duties mentioned on hrsdc ... and I will be applying under a new NOC Code again.

Here is a reference letter drafted by me which my manager would be signing soon. Please can you confirm if the info on here is enough and does the letter look credible.
I would be printing this on a company letterhead.

Also is it necessary for a fax number to be present because we don't have a fax machine for our department.

Can't say much on the duties but the format looks good. My ref letter didn't include a NOC code, but do they require it now? Better go check... Also, the salary is per year, right?

Read it again, because it surely does, with the caveat "if known" in practice, if the letter is missing that, it's not a problem.

As long as you list employment which does qualify, it won't matter...

Personally, I would follow the instructions. But other people will tell you, in practice, people often list only the one "qualifying" job and it doesn't seem to hurt their application.

need mention NOC code, for any must information, fax, website, I suggest you just find one from HR who they should have it definitely.

suggest match all the items of NOC code you are applying, make sure all of them covered and not over covered to as other NOC code.

also , the education background of the NOC code should be matched. like what you majored in school . or else you need find another code.

suggest change present to an exactly date
