Letter Of Explanation after rejection of Internship Letter

[Neha Shah]

Hi All,

I am a C.A. from India. As part of our curriculum, I had to do a mandatory 3 year internship under a Chartered Accountant. The internship had to be registered with The Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI)
While filing my PR application, we had mentioned the same and provided a letter from my internship employer (called the Principal) stating that I was a trainee under him for the said period and that it was a paid internship mandated by ICAI. We had also provided the letters issued by ICAI, acknowledging the beginning and termination of internship.

The immigration officer rejected my application saying that the internship letter is not enough.

We are refiling the application without mentioning the internship experience (as it does not affect my CRS) giving LOE for the same.

Ia this the right approach?
If yes, what shou;d be mentioned in the LOE?
If not, kindly suggest an alternative.

Thanks and Regards,
Neha Shah

Internships are counted .

What exactly you provided ?

You should have supported the letter with payslips, bank statements.

Were the duties and work hours mentioned ?
How much you were paid during internship?


When you submitted your Application ?

Hi. Thanks for your reply.

I submitted only the letters from the Institute and my Principal.
Work hours were mentioned but roles and responsibilities weren't.
The internship ended 5 years back. So didn't think we'll have to give the details as we're showing only post qualification work experience of 3 years.

I submitted the application on 4th September.

Yeah ,that could have been considered if you had given the letter with duties and attached payslips or bank statements .

Make sure this time you have attached a letter with duties as per the NOC.
Without duties ,you wont get points CRS and eligibility points ;hence ,lead to straightforward refusal .


Do check the documents requirement including work experience letter using the cic checklist from the below link -

Everything document submitted must be as per the requirement.

Good luck .
