Hi Guys! Can anyone make it clear for me if the spouse/common-law partner has to send letters of employment or not?
"For the principal applicant:
• original and up-to-date letters of reference from your past and current employers
for the past 10 years.
Letters must be:
• written on company letterhead,
• signed by the responsible officer/supervisor,
• show the company's full address, telephone and fax numbers, email and
website addresses, and
• stamped with the company's official seal (if applicable).
Letters must include all of the following information:
• the specific period of your employment with the company
• the positions you have held during the period of employment and the time
spent in each position
• your main responsibilities and duties in each position
• your total annual salary plus benefits
• the number of hours worked per week
• a business card of the person signing
If you cannot provide a reference from an employer, provide a written
explanation and any documentation that would support your claim to such
employment and provide the information as set forth above.
For the accompanying spouse or common-law partner:
• original and up-to-date letters of reference, including all details as specified
above, in respect of any employment in Canada under a work permit.
• a copy of the work permit.


Thank you!!!

IMO, Spouse Educational transcripts are must as they are awarded points. Spouse Experience certificates should do you may not need reference letter in the desired format as no points are claimed for the same.

Any one who has already got the Visa w/o reference letter?
