Hi All

Proof of work experience
Purpose
To prove each work experience claim and to validate that the applicant meets program requirements

Document requirements

• The personalized document checklist in applicants’ online account prompts the applicant with an upload field for each work experience declared.
• At the completeness check, the processing office determines only whether the required documents are included. The validity or fraudulence of the information is assessed only if and when the application is placed into processing.

The following documents are mandatory for each work experience declared:

• a reference or experience letter from the employer, which
  • should be an official document printed on company letterhead (must include the applicant’s name, the company’s contact information [address, telephone number and email address], and the name, title and signature of the immediate supervisor or personnel officer at the company),
  • should indicate all positions held while employed at the company and must include the following details: job title, duties and responsibilities, job status (if current job), dates worked for the company, number of work hours per week and annual salary plus benefits; and
• if the applicant is self-employed, articles of incorporation or other evidence of business ownership, evidence of self-employment income and documentation from third-party individuals indicating the service provided along with payment details (self-declared main duties or affidavits are not acceptable proof of self-employed work experience).

If the work experience is in Canada, proof may include copies of T4 tax information slips and notices of assessment issued by the Canada Revenue Agency (the time period for these documents should reflect the work experience timeframe [e.g., work experience from 2006 to 2008 requires only documents from those calendar years]).

Individuals who must submit this documentation

• The principal applicant
• Their spouse or common-law partner (if work experience in Canada is claimed)

Thanks, so if I understand correctly, I should not be worried about cash remuneration from 2011 to 2016 in cash, all docs are there to prove it and since 2016 till date, everything was done in bank account.

There is no proof needed on how the company paid you. The CIC requirements are pretty clear on what should be mentioned on the letter.

I think this confusion has arisen as many organizations have a standard format for such letters and salary may not be mentioned on the letter. In those case many people provide last few months pay stubs to provide proof of salary amount. Under no circumstance is CIC going to ask you for proof of last 6 years of payment from company.
