Thank you so much Del.

My wife is also in my application however we are claiming points based on my work experience history rather than hers. Does she need to obtain job reference letters too?

Thanks

No. Reference letter required only for principal applicant, provided her work experience is placed on Personal History and not in Work History.
If put in Work History, system will automatically generate a field to upload spouse's work reference letter.
