Hello Seniors,
Need some advise on the below:
Background: I am a FSW outland candidate but was deputed from an Indian IT company (TCS) to Canada from Sep 2007 to Mar 2009.
And as such, I am claiming points for 1 year of Canadian experience. I recently received ITA based on these points.
However, my employer has strictly refused to mention anything on my Canadian experience in the experience letter. Unfortunately, I don't have any pay stubs prove my work experience in Canada either. Moreover, my employer could not provide me the duplicate pay stubs as it is beyond their data retention window (meaning they delete employee records that are older than 7 years). For the same reason, I couldn't get the bank statement for my salary account either.
What I am planning to do:
As a work around, I am planning to provide the following documents:
1. Experience letter from the employer in a standard format; It doesn't mention hours of work, salary details and anything related to Canada exp.
2. Reference letter from my last onsite manager on an affidavit covering all (India + Canada) the required information. He is still with the company in Canada.
3. Reference letter from my last offshore manager on an affidavit covering all (India + Canada) the required information. He is still with the company in India.
4. Deputation letter that mentions the start date in Canada and salary.
5. T4 for tax year 2007, 2008 and 2009
Questions:
1. Are the above documents sufficient to prove my work experience in Canada?
2. Is reference letter from senior/manager on affidavit as good as a experience letter on company letter head? Or, I must substantiate the details in the reference letter by other official documents?
3. I have requested CRA (Canadian revenue Agency) to send out my NOA (Notices of Assessment) for tax year 2007 and 2008 to my India address but I am not sure I will get them on time. Are NOA required if I am providing T4 slips? I ask this question because I won't have NOA for 2009 as I haven't filed tax return for that year. Or, It is advisable to provide whatever I got viz. T4 for 2007/8/9 and NOA for 2007/8?
4. Is it possible to file tax return for 2009 and mention in the LOE that I have filed now and will share NOA with IRCC when I get it?
5. Is there any other document that I can provide to compensate for company reference letter / pay stubs / salary account statement?
Sorry about the long post but would really appreciate any suggestion/advice on this as I have to submit my application soon.. Thanks.
