Hi, below is my employment history :

A 06/2010 - 02/2011 "( 8 months experience ) - Initially hired me as a Intern 30 hrs/week and then they hired me as full-time employee 40 hrs/week. This company was shutdown a month after I moved out. I could not contact anyone regarding my employment verification letter, I do have internship offering letter and full time offering letter but the letter explains very less of my roles. I only have w2 no pay stubs.

B 03/2011 - 10/2012 ( 18 months experience ) - Initially hired me as a Intern 40 hrs/week and then full time employee 40 hrs/week. I contacted the HR no response. I have a hiring letter for my internship and full-time with less information of my roles. I have W2 and pay stubs.

C 10/2012 - 10/2015 ( 3 years ) - full time 40 hrs/week. received employment verification letter and reference letter and have all documents

D 10/2015 - present - Full time 40 hrs/week, received employment verification letter and reference letter.

My question is since company A is closed and company B is not responding to my email for employment verification letter and with less documents, how can I prove my employment with that company.

Advice and suggestions are highly appreciated.
Thank you,

Thank you,
Since you have around 6 years of experience from your last 2 companies (and you can only claim points for 3 years of foreign experience) for EE so I guess you would be okay by showing only last 2 companies' documents. For other two companies you can delete them from your work experience section in EE profile and keep them under personal history only. You can then explain in an LOE that you can not provide experience letters for those two employers due to the said reasons and since you are not claiming point for them so you are moving them to personal history.

However, under EE, your 3 years experience is sufficient for claiming maximum points but please make sure once that after removing the experience from first two companies you minimum sore requirement of 67 points is not affected - https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/immigrate-canada/express-entry/become-candidate/eligibility/federal-skilled-workers/six-selection-factors-federal-skilled-workers.html

Good Luck.

I really appreciate your response. I already received my ITA, is it possible to delete or modify my EE profile after receiving ITA ? I’m little skeptical to touch it.

I understand your concern as I am in same boat too. I have received ITA and is having issue with one job letter. So, I have done thorough research on this and talked to some people as well who have received PR using same approach. I am going to do this in my case too. There are many threads on the forum as well stating the same. So stay assured it is okay as long as your score is not being affected (under which you received ITA) it is completely okay. Just make sure to explain it in LOE as well for clarity of your case officer.

Hi Seniors,

Thank you for helping us out with the application. Please consider my case and advise me how many Reference Letter would I need.

June 2015- Started working in company X at A location and Job designation M
February 2017-January 2018- Changed location to B, still working at company X, same designation M
February 2018- Returned to location B, working in the same company X at job designation M
June 2018- Working for the same company X at new job designation N at location A

My thoughts are to furnish three reference letters, two for the job tasks at designation, M and N at location A and one for the job tasks at designation M at location B?

Sorry this sounds a bit confusing but any leads would be deeply appreciated. Also my company doesnt furnish the Job tasks along with the normal employment verification letter, however I can get it from my Manager on the company letterhead. Hope that works!

Thanks and Regards

Experts, please help
I joined in the company as "Associate Software Engineer" in 2010 and was promoted to "Software Engineer" in 2011. I worked till 2014.
My question is:

1. Do i need to make separate entry for each role , as NOC and roles and responsibilities are exactly same.
If yes, then what about the relieving letter when I show "Associate Software Engineer" ? will that be required.

2. If i make the same entry mentioning "Software Engineer", will there be any problem if my offer letter says "Associate Software Engineer"

NOTE: 1. I can get both the roles to be written on same experince letter and payslips having designations
2. my company is refusing to provide Promotion letter

To all of you on this page, I had the same issue (3 positions in same company due to promotions). I got my PR under express entry last year. here's what i did: I submitted only one letter and the letter had details of all three positions. The letter was lengthy due to job description ...responsibilities, duties, salary etc of each and every job in the same letter. When I applied, there was different attachment places for every experience you claim points for. Don't know if the system has changed. But I uploaded the same letter in all three attachment spots.

Please be advised, for additional precaution, I got my HR department to sign, date and number every page in the 3 page letter with the company stamp (i worked for a bank in canada and our centrally located HR department in Toronto provided only one letter instead of three different ones for diff positions). Signing every page is not a rule but this ensures that your employer has vouched for every page of the letter and that its not tampered by you. There's no rule that says you have to do this but it was one of my effort to prove the legitimacy.

Hello, thats very informative. Thanks
Small query :
1. Is it necessary to show promotion letter ? My company is not issuing one.
But I have the compensation letter for each year (before and after promotion) which doesn't mention designation, and payslips which mentioned designation.

2. If I make an entry, say June 2010 till August 2011 for one role, and September 2011 till May 2014 for promoted role, will they be able to relate that it's the continuation of same j

1- no need for all these if your company just mentions your different positions in the letter. Like the above post i only uploaded one reference letter which had everything.
2- you can upload the same reference letter in both slots

Concur with the aforesaid- I adopted the same strategy and submitted 1 reference letter for circa 8 years of my experience (with various titles/designations).

I have experience letter in the same format for last 11 years..holding different positions in the same company..but it doesnt mention salary as it was revised every year or 2.. I have all promotions and salary revision letters alongwith the bank statement..
Not having salary in the experience letter will be an issue?
Thanks in advance..

Just mention the salary drawn for the last position. Please ensure you supply paystubs (atleast 5 or 6 of them for these 11 years).

Dear seniors,

I would appreciate your help with my work experience situation. I have worked for a company in 2 different periods, which there is a 17 month time gap between them. Which one is ideal? To get 2 separate letters for each period or just one mentioning both periods with their respective designation and duties?

Thank you
