Hi, I advise you to submit a 'LOE' along with this letter provided by your employer. I am in a similar position. I was made redundant after 3.5 years and the company only provided a letter confirming the position, the dates worked and the fact that they don't provide a letter in cases of 'redundancy'. I drafted a letter of my responsibilities and swore an affidavit in front of a Notary Public. To this I will include the following:

1) Copies of T4 equivalents for the years I worked
2) Copies of Tax Returns showing me reporting the amounts as taxable salary
3) Copy of the Job description
4) Copy of the Job Advertisement
5) Signed letter from my manager I had to get in order to receive my professional accounting membership (specifying in detail my job duties). This was on company letterhead.

Hope this helps.
Thank you. I worked in that company for 8 years and job which I joined was completely different from what I ended up doing. I doubt if I could get job advertisement for this position. The managers whom I have worked have all left :-(. I can show the tax returns for those years.

Thanks again.

Hello
I wanted to know some information about Express Entry.
I have been working as an IT manager and Digital Marketing Specialist for 6 months now and I got a new job as Data Engineer.
Does the work experience with two jobs counts or do I have to wait for 1 year of my new job in order to apply for Express Entry?
When I will apply I will have 6 months experience from one job and 6 months from other. Is it allowed ?
Please do let me Know
Thank you.

You can enter as your current job but won't get any points for it until 1 year passes.
When I will apply I will have 6 months experience from one job and 6 months from other. Is it allowed ?
Yes if it's Canadian experience. No if its foreign experience.
Please do let me Know
Thank you.

I assume you don't have to. Someone with a PNP, please correct me if I'm wrong. I don't really know the PNP process. I assume its similar to EE process.

I don't think you have to explain about your unemployment as long as you meet the requirements. It is not necessary for you to be employed right now.

Hello,

I got married last month, and notified CIC for the change in status last month.

I received my AOR in September 2015 and I submitted my finger prints on Oct 28th, 2015. I have not yet received the positive AOR. I updated the status change on Nov 25th, 2015. I am still waiting for the reponse or request for documentation of my wife from CIC.

Question: from the time I received my AOR in Sept 2015, how much more time am I waiting here to get the PR process done? My wife and I will be get it together, any guesses or advice on the timeline I am looking here during this process to get everything done by?

Please note: My wife's visitor visa got rejected although I showed the Consulate that I (primary applicants) file is under process and my wife has been added as a secondary applicant. My file had all possible documentation to prove my marriage and relationship, her status in current country of residence, her employment and plans to visit me and then go back while her file for PR is under process.

So, if anyone is making plans to get along with them on Visitor visa, be cautious as the visitor visa for spouse is really risky.

Please advice me on the timeline for my file I should be looking at after I added my wife in my PR application.

Thanks.

Hi I have a small query. Where in the EE profile can I update the passport details of spouse? I can't seem to find it. I distinctly remember inputting it though when I made the EE profile. Thanks!

Hello Seniors,

One small query...What is the CLB equivalent of IELTS score 4.5 for speaking. CIC Conversion table talks about IELTS 4 and 5 but not 4.5.

Regards

I would like to know if I get lower score on IELTS, should I update my EE profile. For istance, when I created my profile my IELTS overall score was 8, but now I re-took it, and I am afraid that I would have lower marks. Whether or not should I change the marks in the IELTS section, and therefore lower my points in the pool??

If the previous one is still valid, you can use it. The only time you have to change it is if the previous one expires.

There is none mentioned in the equivalency charts.

I think you have to consider the points for band 4 even though one has 4.5

in personal history form, I had to fill up 2 years 2012 to 2014 as my education timeline as per my visa/permit. However, I changed my course from two years to one year.. and graduated. (we don't have to change visa).

so Will it be a conflict that even though I am mentioning 2 years, I still have a one year degree awarded..

other question is, in my present offer letter, it says '.. the duration of contract is 24 months...' however, in my reference letter, they mentioned it as permanent full time position.. will it be a reason to worry?

Thank you in advance for you help.

HI, you don't have to provide any explanation for any period you're unemployed. I was unemployed for 11 months and haven't sent any explanation for this. No have they asked for it.

Hi everyone,
I need your advice. I have EE application under CEC and I apply for BOWP using AOR but unfortunately it was refused the reason was Notice of Receipt does not constitute Acknowledgement of Receipt and the application still prospective. They advice me to apply for restoration. My question is can I apply for restoration without LMIA? Or can I apply for extension without LMIA like using employer compliance fee?
