Guys...on the checklist it states that on the Reference Letter it should list the annual salary of the position, my question is, the letter i got from HR, says that i am permanent full time with 35 hrs per week, salary of XXX biweekly


is it ok if it mentions biweekly salary instead of annual salary? or do i have to ask HR to change it?
 
It looks fine, but it is anytime better if they mention annual salary.

If you have already submitted the letter, it is fine. Meanwhile, you can get an updated letter, in case they ask for one in the future.
 
It's completely fine.

CIC aren't stupid. They can calculate your annual salary themselves.

One of my reference letters listed my monthly salary and it was accepted.
 
My reference letters didn't state that it was a permanent position but stated it was full time and the number of hours worked. Is that ok?
 
Yes that should be fine.

They will manage to calculate no worries :)
 
Hi guys,

I have a question about salary: What's the best way to show the whole salary if the bonus was different every year for 4 years? Should my employer specify the amount of the bonus for every single year? Average?

Thanks!

Jus have them list your fixed salary and the average bonus separately. That's what I did - worked perfectly.

Hi,

I have the same query buddy, all my ex-employers have denied mentioning/stating my annual salary on the experience letters. All of them are big MNCs. They say they don't do it as a common company practice! When I insisted, they said you can submit a copy of your appointment letter which details your salary, bonuses etc. I am confused what should I do?

Also, I currently work for my fathers Pvt Ltd firm as a sales manager. Here, I'm paid via cash vouchers throughout. Will I face any issues in this regard. Of course , here the annual salary can be mentioned on the experience letter - will it be sufficient ?

Thanks bud

That is not the same query. You have a different situation because your company refuses to put the salary into the letter at all.

You should include:

- your offer letter with the salary
- tax statements and/or salary receipts
- an email from your company that proves they refuse to include the salary in the reference letter
- a letter of explanation in which you detail the situation

I don't know what cash vouchers are.
