Hi everyone,

I'm almost ready to submit my application but I'm stuck at the part of employment records, so any help is welcome :)

For my work history I only included my Canadian work experience, 1 year fulltime work experience. So I thought this is the only job I would need documents for because it's the only job I am getting points for. But now I see that they ask the below in bold, my current job.. is it really necessary to provide documents for my current job while I'm not getting any points for it? (Note: I am not working in Canada anymore)

"You must provide proof of work experience for your current job and for each past position you listed. Proof must include a reference letter from your employer and pay stubs, if you have them. The reference letter must:
  • be an official document printed on company letterhead
  • include your name, the company's contact information (address, telephone number and e-mail address), the signature of your immediate
  • show all positions held while employed at the company
  • include these details: job title, duties/responsibilities, job status (if current job), the dates you worked for the company, the number of work hours per week and your annual salary plus benefits.
You must scan all documents for this period of employment and save them as one file. (You must create a separate file for each period of employment.) "



Also my second question, for my job experience in Canada I have my contract (which states my annual salary, hours per week, job title/duties etc.), and then a reference letter which states the dates I worked for the company and job title, duties/responsibilities (but does not include my salary and hours worked per week). I got this letter when I left the job. Is this enough to upload for my application?
I got paid by cheque (which I don't have anymore) so I don't have any paystubs, just an excel sheet with all the numbers. But I do have my tax slips, do you recommend including those with my application?

Thanks for all your help already and good luck with all your applications!
