Dear Saki (specially) and All
I also need an advice from your experience. I am the principal applicant and have some problems while collecting all documents.
For my first job, I don't have my job contract, however I have my experience letter, salary certificate and job responsibilities letter. Will it be enough?
If you are claiming points for this job,then you will have to collect "current reference letter". If not, then mention the reason why you were not able to produce a Reference letter in a cover letter
For my 2nd Job, I have my job contract as well as all letters (experience, salary, responsibilities) but the problem is my job contract shows a different designation (Network Admin Officer) than my job responsibilities (Lecturer) because when i was offered the job, my employer told that designation on papers will be different due to company finance/budget issues. Now they are not giving me a written statement mentioning that title was different. However they have given me an experience letter with detailed responsibilities as Lecturer (even on experience letter they mentioned that I served as a Lecturer). Should I attach contract copy? Or what do u advise?
Mention this (when i was offered the job, my employer told that designation on papers will be different due to company finance/budget issues) in your cover letter as well. Attach your contract copy.
Just so that you know, CIC will assess your "JOB DUTIES and responsibilities" rather than a matching NOC code. So if you can talior your reference letter with strong emphasis on the duties performed as "Lecturer", then you should be fine. CIC go by the wordings as they assess the applications so while preparing the "Job responsibilities" or "reference letter" add in the 'wordings' from the website but in your own words.
We (My spouse and myself) dont have our birth certificates and not able to get those. Should we put other supporting docs like school certificates, passport, Identity Card etc?
If you are from India, it is very normal that birth certificates were not available prior to 1969. You can mention that The “Registration of Births and Deaths” Act was effective only in 1969 (Act No. 18 of 1969, India). and go ahead with the school certificates and I believe your passport also has the same DOB which is an additional proof.color=blue][/color][/font]
Thanks a lot in advance
