Ok so I am terribly confused between these 3 letters.

1: Letter of Employment ( No description given )

2: Offer of Employment ( description given by CIC)

3: Employment Reference or Record letter ( description given by CIC)

I have an idea on what the contents of #2 and #3 should be, but what about #1? What is it that CIC expects?

This should be from your current employer (if employed) and should list all the pertinent details such as salary, ft or pt, number of hours, length of employment, benefits etc.
