I don't think that this will be a problem. As long as you've completed the minimum of
12 months FT employment by that date.

No worries boss .... as long as the letter is genuine, it doesn't matter whether it is printed on Sunday or Friday midnight :)

Hi guys,

My employment letter was dated Dec 12, 2012, wondering if it'll be an issue since my start date was Jan 3, 2012... Is it not enough 1 year experience? I actually applied on April 2013 when i was still working, and included the Mar and Apr pay slips as well, so if the officer looks at them it might tell that I have more than 1 year work experience.

But do they count it just based on the date on the letter? If that's the case i might lack a few weeks....lol...should i send them and updated one and how? :( :(

Thanks in advance for your advice

You certainly need to send in a more recent reference letter. Jan 3 to Dec 12 will be considered for your experience and you are short by about 3 weeks.

DONT use that letter. It has to be dated after you completed your 12 months experience!!!
