Hi Folks, lately i have started following this forum and its pretty impressive to see how everyone is helping each other out here.
I shipped my application on December 8th 2014 NOC 0621 (assistant Manager Retail).
I have following concerns regarding my application :
1) My employment reference letter states 5th December 2014 as the issue date but i actually completed my 1 year on 8th December 2014. That being said, I still work with the same company and i shipped my documents on December 8th.
2) I included all my pay stubs other than the last pay stub that accounted for my 1 year experience. My company issued the pay stub after I shipped my documents. But my Employment reference letter states my Annual salary.
3) Most important, I took 20 Days vacation during my work tenure. I hope that won't create any problem because according to CIC 1 year of work experience includes medical and vacation leaves. Also, my employment reference letter clearly states that I worked 40 hrs per week i.e. I worked 1960 hours and the minimum requirement is 1560 hrs.
Do you guys think I can be picked for any of these reasons.
The company that i work for is a renowned Canadian clothing company.
Please Advice
1. Employment letter should be after you complete the 1 year requirement, I believe is the date that testifies you HAVE completed working for 1 year.
2. Was in similar position, included a brief cover letter explaining that, plus a small cover letter from the company accountant that verified the same.. You should be ok, since you sra salaried though, along with T4 and NOA of course that state the same.
3. Wrong!
The requirement is not only 1560 hours, is both 1560 h. AND minimum 1 year completed, 52 weeks that is.
So, no matter how many hours per week you worked, cic only counts 30 per week, and you get 1 week, that's it!
2 weeks of paid vacation are generally accepted, as long as you have proof (paystubs, letter that states benefits etc).
I would advise to recalculate your weeks, any week you worked over 30 h., count as 1 week, don't add up the hours!
