I am preparing my fulldocs for New Delhi Visa office. I noticed that some of the reference letters are given on company letter head but they do not have copmany seal. Is this a must for New Delhi Visa office?

Please advise.

These are the requirements straight from the New Dehli CHC cheklist.  The seal is a requirement but some companies do not seal documents.   I would explain this to CHC on a cover letter as you have no other choice.  Ask for other opinions please.

For you and your spouse or common-law partner:
•notarized employment contracts from your present and past employers, accompanied by an English or French translation
•original and up-to-date letters of reference from your past and current employers. Letters must be written on company letterhead and show the company's full address, telephone and fax numbers, and be stamped with the company's official seal.Letters must include all of the following information:

This is a requirement but not really a reason for worry. I know many members who got through w/p official seal. But if you do not have reference letter on company letterhead signed by your boss or HR then it is a problem
