Hello everybody,
To apply under the FSW 3 my steps are:
1. Acquire 1 year of skilled work experience (paralegal) in Australia
2. Apply for WHV, and once it is approved, leave Australia
3. Work for 1 year in Canada. Let's be pessimistic and assume it is an unskilled job
4. Apply for FSW 3 in Canada
The issue/concern is: I need to provide evidence that I have worked in a paralegal position. That is, I will need my manager to write a letter to the Canadian authorities that I have worked as a paralegal for 1 year. Is it possible to get my manager to write the letter PRIOR TO leaving Australia or must the letter be written at the time, or close to the time of applying for a FSW 3 which is in Canada? Is there any timeframe requirements of completing the letter in other words. The reason why I am asking is because:
1. If I get my manager to write me a letter while I am in Canada, after 1 year has elapse, it may be quite difficult since the manager may not be with the company anymore. Bearing in mind that over 1 year has elapsed and the manager may also change her cellular number.
2. For a peace of mind having the letter written sooner, and knowing 'yes the letter is thoroughly correspondant to what the HRSDC prescribed as the duties and responsibilities of a paralegal' creates absolute peace in the back of the mind.
Also.... can the letter be written from a 'Word document' that the manager can personally create or is the letter part of the 'visa application package' that has a specific format of its own??
Thanks all for reading my post, thanks some more if guidance is provided.
