My fellow Immigrants from TCS,

I received my PR 2 years back and I thought of drafting all the steps I performed for obtaining reference letters from TCS. Someone might get help from this topic in their PR process.

TCS will not provide you any kind of official letter for PR process. But that doesn’t mean that you should not ask for one.

1) Send mail to HR/BRM/Client Relationship manager, asking for reference letter – If they reply ”NO” stating company policy, refer this mail in “letter of explanation” of your CIC application.

2) For role and responsibilities, get the same from your manager/colleague.
Trick – Print the roll and responsibilities letter, use manager/colleague’s TCS ID card and/or business card & scan them together.
Note – As per my personal experience; possibility is that CIC may contact them on their TCS email, so make sure they are responsive and/or not left the TCS.


3) TCS Ultimatix is home to various documents. So grab as much as documents you can grab - Salary slips, compensation letters, joining letter, bonafide letter etc. Example – don’t shy away from providing last 4 years salary slips by thinking it`s irrelevant.

4) Generate various letters from TCS internal. E.g. Get letters for Internet/Phone/ Landlord etc. any kind of purpose.

5) TCS timesheet snapshot`s. This is very informative to show your TCS working hours. Capture 2-3 screenshot`s for every year you work in TCS.

6) Outside TCS India - Get letters from local HR for applying visa of your parents/relatives. They will definitely not deny you for this. Make sure to put your current designation, salary, joining date etc details.
7) TCS Canada – You can definitely use your WP application/extension letters. People even used this letter to get 50 extra points.

Worth saying here that TCS is far better that any other Indian IT company. You have lot many resources internally of getting what needed for a successful immigration process.

All the best in your immigration process.

Thanks for sharing this. I started my career in TCS, but left too long ago to need a letter from them. However, thanks for this informative post. (I was actually at TCS when Ultimatix was first launched - it seems like it's a lot more useful than it was then :) )

Hi there,

The post has been immensely informative. I now know what to do to proceed further.
But I am unable to understand bullets 6 and 7. Could you please elaborate those too.

Thanks a ton

Thanks this is really helpful.

Could you or anyone please clarify on below?

Folks, for
pt 2 - Does the manager needs to notarize the document as he will be signing? Alternatively if he can share the details from his TCS email will it work?
pt 4 - TCS bonafide letters doest mention the roles or working hours. It does mention the salary and full time and WP end date( not sure if this will help if we are claiming 50 job offer points).
pt 6 - There's a bonafide letter for Parents visa etc. Will HR give out a separate one if we ask for it

Hi
Will They consider TCS secondment letter as offer letter , will it give 200 points in crs?

Thanks
Senthil
First, The offer letter has to be from Canadian Incorporated organization, and matching all criteria specified by IRCC.
Second, this organization will need to file your LMIA in the appropriate NOC for you to claim 200 points.

Considering your position as a secondee, I don't think you are eligible for claiming points.
