Proof legality of professional experience
This should be a proof of social security contributions or a notice of assessment to tax
on income.
If you cannot provide one of these proofs, you must provide an exemption proof of payment of social security premiums by a government authority (not your employer).
Important clarifications on the proof of legality:
Whatever industry you work in (private, public, parapublic, etc.), you must proof of legality of your professional experience.
All documents certifying the legality of professional experience must be issued by an authority
government. The documents issued by your employer or accountant are not accepted.

- The tax registration cards;
- Pay slips.
I need help from you guys. In my case, I've applied CSQ through Regular program – Foreign student in Québec from Montreal on September 2014 (as I completed Masters from here). My AOT is Computer Engineering and currently I am working in Quebec in my profession. I showed my job experience from Pakistan is 1.6 year with my application. I have submitted my experience letters and a salary certificate from employer which mentioned that my salary was below taxable limit by income tax regulation. I didn't file my tax return during that year because I didn't know on that time I will face tax problem in future. Also, I receive the salary in Cash not direct deposit.
As I can see in this forum many people belong from Asia are facing the same problem and many people got success. I don't know exactly from where in Pakistan I can get tax documents which is acceptable by Quebec official.
Can any one guide me from which department in Pakistan I can get a proof of social security contributions or a notice of assessment to tax on income???

If you cannot provide one of these proofs, you must provide an exemption proof of payment of social security premiums by a government authority (not your employer). I don't know from which department I can get this doc, please advice???
