I have an ITA, now I am preparing my PR application. I have question relates to my employer reference letter.

I worked for an Employer A for 2 years. In that, I have worked for one year as part of OPT (USA) after my graduation. Another 1 year I have worked as part of CPT (USA)as part of my other course.

In express entry, I have claimed experience only for 1 year which is part of my OPT.

Now my employer gave me a reference letter for whole 2 years even I have requested for 1 year.

If I add this reference letter, this will cause any issues?

Experts please share your opinion. Thanks in advance.

Did your employer write in the letter that you worked two years as part of OPT (USA)? If yes then you could be in trouble for misrepresentation.

No, He did not mentioned anything in the reference letter. I thought OPT should be okay to include as a experience since this is not part of an curriculum.
