CV - question - Parents's PR sponsorship application

[ashonnider1977]

I know this thread is a couple of years old, but in case you or someone else stumbles upon it, I thought I'd offer some input on your questions. Navigating a PR application can be a complex process, and each situation can vary quite a bit.
CV/Resume: Generally, they're looking for a comprehensive yet concise overview of employment history and relevant experiences.
Prior Employment: If he doesn't have employment documents from his earlier jobs, he might want to consider getting letters of recommendation from people who can vouch for his experience. Speaking of which, here's an excellent guide on how to ask for a letter of recommendation that you might find useful.
Education: They might ask for educational credentials, so try to gather as much as you can, or prepare an explanation in case you can't produce certain documents.

Hi

Have you heard any feedback since submitted the CV yet? My father got the CV request too. He has been self-employed for 20 years. I want to find some reference to estimate the timeline. Thank you very much.

What was wrong with your resume and what did you change? I got resume request today for my parents

I also got a resume request today. It says the following.

It appears that the Curriculum Vitæ (CV) /Resume is incomplete. Please provide the most current CV/Resume for the Principal Applicant and all dependants aged 18 and over. Ensure your CV/Resume includes information since the age of 18 and does not contain any gaps. Please include all the details of any employment and volunteer positions held till the present day. Note: If you do not have a previous employment history, you must provide a CV/Resume and indicate unemployment

I have double-checked it. There is no gap IMHO. My father was a government employee, I have provided all the job titles and positions. Now, if a job timeline is 2010/10 - 2011/11 and the next one starts in 2011/12, is that counted as a gap? Also, at the age of 18, both of my parents were undergraduate students which I put in the education section, I was wondering if the officer missed it or if they want this in the experience section.
