Correction in employement record after application submission

[langwith]

I have submitted a reference letter from my manager, the offer letter, and the paystubs for my present organization. However, the offer letter has a different pay structure than my payslips since I attached the wrong offer letter by mistake. The offer letter has the salary structure that I had requested (sent the HR a proposed salary structure) but did not receive finally. Will this be an issue and how can I correct this or explain this after submitting my application for PR?

Not an Issue. Rais a CSE

raise a CSE and send the corrected document? is there an option to upload a document? or should i just wait for them to ask?

yes, there is an option to upload the document.

thanks, did that. I hope they don't see this as misrepresentation of information since the earlier incorrect document was purely for my personal purpose to propose my expected salary structure to the HR.

In my opinion, you should have ignored this. Pay slips would never tally with gross pay due to variable payouts, tax components, benefit components etc. All IRCC wants to know is if were paid or not. How much you were paid is of least concern to them.

By raising CSE and providing a different document for something that you already provided, you are completely opening a new can of worms. It will raise questions on how you were able to get a previous offer letter with incorrect salary in it. They do compare what you sent earlier vs what you resend.

Yes, I agree. But the information in the earlier uploaded document, if they compared simple things such as the basic pay, they would notice a discrepancy. Also, importantly that document isn't factually correct and not the one issued by the employer. Basically, I had edited the salary details in the offer letter itself that was sent by the HR so that I could propose to them what I was expecting but didn't receive that salary since the HR finally offered what they had to offer. Saved it as a pdf (over a year ago) and by mistake picked that one from my old folders. Not sure if they are going to get into this level of detail as to how it happened and if they do not sure if this explanation will suffice. Could have left it and waited for them to respond but just felt that proactively explaining a mistake from my end would be good. Still worried how it's going to be dealt with!

In CSE, did you tell them that you edited the offer letter or just mentioned that it was an incorrect offer letter when the offer was still in discussion?

Didn't explain to this detail in the CSE. Mentioned that the document is incorrect because the salary stack does not match with the paystubs since that was only what I was going to propose to the employer but not what was finally issued by the employer.
