Hi,
Hope everyone is doing well.
I received an ITA on April 25th and am in the process of uploading the documents. I am confused between two docs that are appearing in my checklist, "Employment letter" and "Offer of employment". I have provided below what each of these means, as per CIC:
Now the issue is I am working currently in Montreal, and I intend to resign in two weeks. I have already got an offer from an employer in Vancouver, and have accepted that offer and am going to move there in August. So I have the offer letter from this employer. So I am confused as to what exactly to provide, for each of the documents that are being asked for, as above.
In my application, "Intended work in Canada" section has the Vancouver job details (name, address and province of employer). My "Work History" doesn't have the Montreal company experience (because I am not claiming points for this experience which is less than 1 year, and this as per @DelPiero07's valuable advice). But my personal details has this experience of course, since I need to provide the details of my personal history for the last 10 years.
Now I don't understand what I am supposed to provide as "Employment letter", as mentioned above. I have received only the offer letter from my new employer in Vancouver, and I have included uploaded that as "Offer of employment". Do I need to upload the same document as "Employment letter" as well? Or does it have something to do with the job that I am currently doing (in Montreal)?
Seniors and knowledgeable folks, kindly advise! Thanks a ton in advance!!
Best regards....

Employment letter
----------------
An employment letter is an official document printed on company letterhead stating that you will be employed in Canada by that company for a specified period of time. The employment letter must include your name, the details of your employment in Canada, and the company's contact information.
It may also include:
details such as your tenure with the company
your title, position and duties
approved vacation periods (if travelling to Canada for holidays), or information about whether the company will cover all your travel expenses (if travelling on business for this company), etc
Offer of employment
------------------
You must provide a job offer letter from the employer who wants to hire you. It must be printed on company letterhead, and state that you will be employed permanently in Canada by that company. The letter must specify whether the job is:
for continuous, paid, full-time work (at least 30 hours a week),
for work that is permanent and not seasonal,
skill type 0, or skill levels A or B of the 2011 National Occupational Classification (NOC)
(Note – in most cases, the job offer must be for a permanent job. For some types of jobs, it has to be for at least one year.)
The job offer letter must include contact information for the company (address, telephone number and email address).
