Hi there,

Would you know if I can update one of my Reference Letters using the IRCC Webform? My PR request was submitted through Express Entry.

Thank you!

But in the previous letter, who is mentionned as your contact ?
You can still raise a CSE with the new contact information if the previous contact is not the good one.

HR Manager but in my opinion it's not clear once they added a stamp with contacts instead of typing.

Another point, today we were notified that my spouse Celpip was re-evaluated. It means that her score has increased. Should we also contact them to inform the new score?

Thanks!

I didn't know language tests could be re-evaluated but it is means you get a better score, then raise a CSE with the new CELPIP results.

Yeap! You can request re-evaluation if you don't agree with the final result.

I raised a CSE today with the new letter and also informing the score change.
- Should I expect a feedback from them or something like that?
- Is there a way to check if the letter was updated?

Thank yooou!

May I ask you what new information are in the reference letter ?

I am in na2 so they are evaluating my eligibility. I already attached a work reference letter but company only mentioned few duties with hard coded technical and financial jargon.

now they have given me a revised reference letter that very much matches my noc

now any day cic can reject me based on the earlier job reference letter which was not detailed enough although it was matching the lead statement

can I send this revised one through cse?

please let me know

thanks

Great to note that you have got a updated ref letter. Your scenarios

1) Getting PPR w/o on your existing ref letter.
2) Raise CSE - inside possibility of CIC using this. (since you are in IP2 : my reco will be to raise a CSE)
3) Rejection : However you can always appeal (fairness) if rejected. And chances will be high as you were proactive to get a new Ref Letter.

Assumption : I am assuming your new ref letter is not a great degree of deviation from existing one. It will be a good idea to run your ref letter through people with similar NOC to get a hang of how you are before raising CSE. I think if it deviates a lot - may be an issue.

Wishing you good luck!

thanks its not deviation. its just adding more explanation to what was mentioned earlier

for example.

this line in the reference letter was

Production of business cases to support Hyperion software and resource investment decisions and designing forecasting spread sheets, variance analysis at Cost centre and directorate levels for senior management


revised version below


) Preparations of financial business cases to support financial investments in Hyperion software investment projects and financial investments in resources required to facilitate financial reporting requirements. This involves preparations, analysis and assessments of budgets, forecasts, cost benefit analysis, scenario analysis, risks and recommendations. Prepared forecasts and variance analysis at Cost centre and directorate levels for senior management.

IMHO your initial framing is quite crisp and does show what your roles and resp were. revised thing had finance ...finance ..finance ..which is okie. I think you are over thinking (which is quite natural).

After looking at the rephrasing i would not raise a CSE as the duties mentioned does get conveyed in your submitted version. (and given if the agent googles hyperion - then we know they will be satisfied abt the finance bit beyond expectations)

These are my thoughts - do share your decision would be interesting to know your perspective.

I understand but the revised version has basically expanded the definition of the word "business case"

any business case involves risk assessments, cost benefit analysis, budgets and recommendations. I hope cic will get that by reading the word business case


is that what your opinion is?
