Employment letters - ITA

[EHKhiari]

Hi all,

I have been given the ITA a few days back and am in the process of collecting the necessary documentation. I've been working full-time for over a year, but I got 3 different fields for "employment" in my document checklist and that's confusing me. I got:

-"Employment Records": this is fairly straightforward. I'll upload a letter from the company and upload however many paystubs I can.

-"Employment offer": I'm not quite sure about this. I DO have a job but it's not a "new arranged" offer per se. Should I just upload the offer from my current job and attach an explanation letter?

-"Employment letter": Again, should I upload the offer of my current job?


Thank you in advance. Please let me know if my questions need further clarification.

Please review the information on this page.

Under "Mandatory documents for all applicants" there is a section titled "Proof of work experience" , read that.

Also, under "Mandatory documents (if applicable)" there is a description of the "letter of offer from the employer." As you noted, this does not apply to you, but it should help you understand the difference between a job offer letter and a letter of employment / reference letter.

Thanks for your response.

I've already read that page, it helped me understand the difference between an "offer" and "employment letter" a little more but it's still quite ambiguous. Should I change my answer to "no" to having a valid job offer then? I did not claim any points for "arranged employment" so I'd imagine that my points should go unaffected. I only gained points from "Work experience" which I'd support with my current employment letter.

Please advise. Thanks again!

Hi Guys,

I am applying for PNP . My manager mentioned different number of hours (i.e. 35 hours per week) in employment contract than actual number of hours on pay slips (i.e. 32 hours per week). I am wandering if it could make any big difference in application.?

Any given help would be appreciated.

"no" would be the correct answer.
