Salary by Cash

[bestofluck]

Hi guys,

A bit of a diversion. My payslips show that my salary is paid into a different account to the one I with my funds for immigration (only declaring one account). Do you think submitting my payslips together with my reference letter may lead to questions being asked by the immigration officer?

If so, what's my best option?

Payslips are not mandatory but if you want to then also attach the statements of the bank where salary is deposited as extra document.

Everyone is forgetting the fact that they need to ensure that whatever the employer is paying in cash is reported to CRA by the employer and the employee because you will run into trouble later when filing for PR and whatever the case may be...and if CRA finds out you're making cash and not reporting it you will be face with paying back everything that was owed over the period.

I would rather stick to fully providing what is mandatory.

Thanks for the help.

Hello all,
I got ITA recently and my question is about my wife's (who is secondary applicant) work experience. My wife worked in a company where she got her salary in cash and no tax was filed. The salary was not large enough to fall into any tax bracket. I have shown her experience in the Express Entry profile even though it did not add to any additional points. Now Post ITA, I need to submit her employment records (Reference Letter + Salary slips). We have got Reference letter with all details along with monthly salary mentioned in it, but we do not have salary slips or any other document to prove her employment. The company is a registered company.
My question is will cic officials need any other documents or ask for tax filing (which was not done) Or since she is secondary applicant and doesn't add to CIC score, so it will do. I am thinking of 2 options here:
Option 1: Decline ITA and create another EE Profile.
Option 2: Go ahead with the same details and provide reference letter from employer.

Just to point out here the company is genuine along with work experience. It's just that how things work in India sometimes may be a hurdle. Many Thanks guys for your help so far!!

Hi TanakaM,
I'm in similar situation, when my salary deposit show different bank from the bank where my FD is. I don't have payslip, only bank statements showing salary deposit. So should I submit these statements or job reference letters only? Thank you

Hi,

Can someone please confirm if it is OK if the employer is paying salary by cash? My employer currently pays this by cash but they do generate payslips every month. What if the salary is not credited in your account and you don't have evidence of taking the salary in account but do have payslips. Does that work?

I have offer letter, employment contract, job letter, payslips etc. But my employer pays salary by cash.

Please suggest if it is ok?

I'm not sure what country you are in and what is normal, but if what you're saying is you can file a tax return declaring your salary, and what is returned is a "thank you - you don't owe us any tax" then yes, that's a good extra bit of proof of being paid.

However your employer is only required to state your salary on your reference letter. Payslips are not mandatory. If your employer just states on the letter "xxx had a salary of $xxx" then that's all that's needed.

Hello, my previous company said that they cannot provide roles and responsibilities, just the relieving letter. They mentioned the same content on a company letterhead. Couple of my managers from their company email said they cannot provide roles letter. In that case, can i use a letter written on a plain paper from a senior manager, who i did not report but oversaw my roles. I can attach his company id card and business card. Is that sufficient? Thank you!

The only mandatory item is the letter providing it has all the details. Please read the CIC checklist you have been given to get the exact requirements, people on the forum upload lots.

I am claiming my 3 years old work experience and so do not have any documents except Appointment letter & Relieving letter.
If I manage to get the reference letter from employer and submit it exactly with all the details mentioned on CIC website I don't need anything else?

I totally understand you. My first job back home only paid cash (but my reference letter does mention my annual salary) but I am working now in the UK and it is straightforward with money paid to back account and payslips with tax deduction are also sent to me every month. To be honest, I am hoping that they wouldn't care too much about my first job and that the letter is sufficient and if they want they can verify my UK job. Because this is really how it works back home: salary in hand!!

Can you tell me what happens in your case?. You mentioned you were earning in cash in your first job
Was you POE were accepted.
What all document you provided?
