Hi,

I sent my PR application in November of last year but lately I have been reading rejection stories due to short list of duties and responsibilities in the employer reference letter. Is it okay if I send another one right now with a more detailed list and have them add that to the file? It's only been 4 months so I don't think they started looking at my application yet. I'd rather send another one now and hope they consider it before rejecting me because of that.

Anyone in a similar situation? Is it possible?

Yes you can send updated letter, after reading rejection posts, I emailed CIC a new reference letter; got a reply from them in couple of days that it was added to my file...........why to take a chance, if you can easily get a updated letter, go ahead

If I want to send original supporting letter (in place of ref letter) through courier.

Can I send? If yes, which address shall I send this to?

I sent them an email and they replied saying that they attached it to my file. So now I just have to wait and hope it's not too late to reconsider my application :/ Did this happen to anyone and they accepted the updated letter? Success stories are very much appreciated lol
