Hi Guys,
Need some advice. I am a CVO applicant and have received interview email yesterday. They have asked me to bring the following.
Please bring your passport(s) and the following documents:
- Recent employment reference letter
- Recent Proof of funds
- Your Personal History (Schedule A form, Question Cool details from 18th birthday without gaps.)
I have submitted employment reference letters from two of my past employees who's duties matched my NOC (I had worked for other companies but didn't mention them as their NOC's were not relevant). Company 1 had closed down their operations in my country (back in 2007) and only head office in US is contactable. I had obtained the reference letter from the director who was managing the local operations at that time by contacting him in the US and submitted a copy of the letter with my application.
I had resigned from company 2 just before I submitted my application to CIO (company was likely to close down as it had financial trouble). I had submitted a copy of my resignation acceptance letter along with the reference letter in the application. I am still unemployed. Company 2 had closed down after a few months of my resignation. However mobile number of the HR manager who had signed the letter was included in the letter and is active. (I also have a current visiting card of that HR manager)
My question now is, what are they meaning by
Recent employment reference letter ?. Is it a letter from my current employer? (I don't have one, as i am unemployed and freelancing at the moment).
Do you think it's game over for me if VO is unable to verify my letters with the employer? and the fact that I am unemployed currently?. What can I do if the company closed down
. Quite worried.
