Hi

1. I have worked under same NOC code at one place for 35 months and at another place for 1.5 month. Both my immediate ex supervisors have asked me to jot down the reference letter text and they will sign it. My question is - should I simply copy and paste duties and responsibilities from the same NOC mentioned at CIC website or paraphrase them? If paraphrase, how much similar should they sound in contrast to the ones mentioned at the CIC website. I have already asked a similar question here before, but I fear getting rejected because of "We found that duties and responsibilities mentioned in your ref letter don't match with the NOC in question" that's why needed more clarity on the topic.

If I add some 20-30% additional duties (apart from mentioning 90 to 100% that listed under the NOC at CIC website), does that deviate my duties and responsibilities from that NOC by 20-30%? I am so confused please help!

2. Yesterday my dad sent me $6000 via wire transfer from India to Canada. (Process of accumulating the gifted funds for PoF) Whereas the sending report says $6000, my canadian bank account shows a receipt of $5942. ($58 deducted as money transfer charges). My question is, if both the sending and the receiving bank refuse to provide a receipt of those $58 deducted, will it be fine if I mention in the LOE that this money has been deducted while the money transit. I am asking this because I don't want the water tightness of the PoF to lessen, as sending an X amount and receving Y amount might make them suspect that the sender is not actually as shown by the applicant in the case. What should I do?

3. I am an inland applicant (residing in Canada) just completed MBA and recently received PGWP. I have been working since past two years part time and making $1300 per month, to cater for my living expenses + my dad sending me $12000 as a gift (all relevant docs attached) + $ 2000 of my own.

So if I am an inland applicant with the case as described above, can it be assumed that the VO will be bit lenient in assessing the POF thing, in contrast to the out of Canada applicants?

Thanks in advance

1. Don't copy the duties word for word. This will result in a refusal. Both of the reference letters need to be different and both should describe your duties in your own words. Yes, it's fine if you add a few extra duties.

2. Don't worry about the $58 receipt. It's normal for some small amount to be deducted in transfer fees. Sure - you can mention in the LOE that $58 in fees was deducted.

3. No - you should not expect the officer to be more lenient with POF since you are already in Canada and working. The officer will still expect to see the full POF amount and will need to be convinced this money is in fact yours and not borrowed.

Ok. How about employers in Canada copying duties themselves? If you look at positions at universities in Canada, most of the duties will be copied. I don't think you are correct, unless you proof it. Thanks
