    Can any original english speaker and know NOC too help update my employer letter

    I don't think you need to write your duties in that much detail. Several sentences would be good enough as long as your employer is credible. It's also easier to ask your friend to proofread the letter for you. It's not a super complicated letter - doesn't have to be error free, either. Many...

    Application Package returned due to missing document

    No worry. That happened to me when I applied. Just add whatever you missed to the old package and send them back again. Also in the letter they said my application fee WILL BE RETURNED. But they didn't so I don't have to repay the application fee in my second submission.

    Renew SIN after landing - do I need PR card?

    I know ICBC won't let me renew my DL before actually receiving the PR card. Will service Canada renew my SIN? I only have a copy of signed confirmation of PR. HR is asking for the new SIN. Thanks.

    Passport Request letter lost in the mail

    It they communicated with you through email all the time there is no reason they request passport through regular mail. Have you checked your spam folder? Or did they specifically say they already sent you a letter requesting passport?

Similar situation to my police certificate. They didn't recognize my certificates because I asked a local...

This means you need to get an email from the intake office to acknowledge that you are eligible to apply for PR under CEC. This may take some time (maybe >1 month). Once you get that...
