Also, I was reading Buffalo specific instructions. In the work experience section/checklist, it says send experience letters from all the employers of spouse too. Why are they asking for spouse's experience letters? I cant get that because he has worked for 3 companies and they are all scattered all over the world.

Please reply if these letters are absolute necessity? Can only my letters do? I am the principal applicant for FSW1.

Well, i don't really have an answer for you.

My work experiences are also scattered all over the world and I got as many letters as I could but maybe I worked in less countries than your wife. This isn't a good enough reason for CIC.

I am not sure why they would need experience letters for your wife given that you can't claim points for your wife's experience.
