This sounds disturbing, sorry for that! I saw other posts about issues concerning work experience, the most mentioned issues were "job letter doesn't include duties", "job letter doesn't state the ending date" (weird cuz for some ppl the job is obviously still ongoing), "NoC doesn't match", and, "I thought I uploaded my job letter correctly but it seems the officer couldn't find it/ didn't open the full pdf file"....can you think of any possible issues that particular job letter might have? Is it a Canadian job or foreign one? Have you submitted supporting docs (pay slips etc.) ?

Thanks so much for your response. I actually figured he or she did not include 53 points for my 2 years of work experience because they could only verify two of the work places by google search. The comment for my third work experience was white-out , so I could not see what was stated under it but it seems like as they could not verify the duties, they did not include it. I no longer work at that place but I just noticed on Indeed that the same position is advertised there, so I am planning to write a LOE and include a copy of the indeed job ad, as it has the duties for that position listed. Then I will send it via webform. btw he or she verified 1 year 8 months of 2 years but as they could not verify the remaining 4 months, they took out the 53 points for the whole two years.

It's a good thing you figured the problem before a final decision is made, hope your proactive action works out!
I believe Indeed ad is a good idea, but on top of that, it is even better if you could convince your former employer to write another reference letter that correctly describes your duties and other elements IRCC requires (don't forget ALL pages must have a company letter head), if somehow the HR can't/won't do it, maybe your direct supervisor/manager could help? Or at least a colleague who's still working there might be willing to clarify your duties back then? This is a matter of saving an application, def worths trying all possible ways.

I hope it is in time. This note from the analyst was back in July and I have had 3 GU since then. By God's grace I was able to get the former employer agree to write me a letter with the requirements.
