Nevermind this post, I think Jes_ON has it spot on.

I think you have to declare your yearly / monthly salary (in the reference letter), and your T4 payslips as attachments. These both could / will mention yearly, so I think you should be fine. I also don't think the actual pay is too much of an issue, since it's mostly focused on employment and...

Might have been a bit harsh :P I understand your frustration. I just wanted to point out that there`s not much people can do, and CIC is just also doing their job. I think bothering them won't get you far, and might even be counter-productive. Have you requested GCMS? That's the only thing you...

I would go visit your local VO and demand your PR to everyone who enters the building, visit every day so they know you're serious! [/Sarcasm]

You would probably get more responses once you're here (so you can mention your Canadian address). When I applied when I was still in the Netherlands, I mentioned specifically that I already had a work visa etc. so the company doesn't have to worry about that. Regarding flight tickets: Some...

Well, I was assuming it would arrive next week, but I just got the email that it's already delivered! So maybe I got lucky :). As I forgot to take a picture of my return envelope, I can only hope it'll be as fast :P
