Hi!

I had prepared all documentaion for CEC and ready to apply. Before proceed, I am having one issue for reference letter, my employer is ignoring to provide reference letter. However I am having employer letters which are used for work permits application and extensions. This work permits application letters clearly states my job duties, pay salary, hours per week etc.
Does this work permit application letters are sufficient to go a head or do I face any problems in going a head.

All Seniors and Experts, who had experience or details please provide and guide.

Thanks,
ind_it009

The problem could be that your employers letter is dated before one year experience (as I understand you)...

To be on a more safer side ...Get a reference letter from one of your Colleague and get it attested. Attach it with Reference letters used for filing Work permit extensions and that would suffice.

Reference letter is important , but if you are providing them with Substantial evidences and explain them why a direct reference letter can't be provided...that would get your job done.

This is what I did.
