Hi,
I received approval for the Employer Job Offer Stream Expression of Interest (EOI) on 19-Jan-24 and have a 14-day window to submit the application. I started working in Canada in November 2022, and I have the necessary pay slips to prove this employment. However, my previous work experience is based in the UAE. I have all relevant experience letters. However, it does not detail the duties and responsibilities or the number of hours worked per week. Additionally, I do not have pay slips or bank statements for that period, since it is not a norm in the UAE.
The snapshot below are specific requirements asper ONIP. Any clarification would be highly appreciated.
1) Copies of your employment/work experience reference letters (mandatory)

1) Copies of your employment/work experience reference letters (mandatory)

In addition to employment/work experience reference letters, you may also submit supporting documents that describe your duties and responsibilities for each position held including job descriptions, performance reviews and job advertisements.

This may include copies of pay slips for the first and last month of each period of work experience, bank statements showing salary deposits for the first and last month of each period of work experience, income tax documents, or letters from employers verifying that your employment was paid and the annual salary/hourly wage. These letters must explain why documentation to verify compensation for work performed is not available.
