Job Offer........
Pre-Assessed..
As per cic, the job must full time - permanent and duties should match on the employment letter with NOC code. I have little more then 2 years of work experience for a company which I just left. Before Leaving I requested employment letter and they provided me something which looks like below. I have couple of concerns about the validity of that letter though.

1. Should I request updated letter which state start and end date of job, since I am no longer working there. ? I left job in Oct, I completed 2 year in June.(On 1st June)
2. Does employment letter has to have NOC Code mentioned.?
3. The letter I got says I was working Full time Contract, CIC required full time permanent, is this something I should be concerned about.? Should I ask that to be changed to Full time permanent ? If employer refuse to write permanent is just full time enough? My job offer actually says full time temporary because I was on a PGWP and not PR.
4. are all those job duties on letter enough for NOC 2174.?

I do have pay stub and T4 for additional proof, If I include those with letter below as it is do you guys think that would do it for me.?

Any Clarification is appreciated.

Did you claim points for LMIA?

If not, your letter is fine as it states full-time plus the work hours.

;)

Ohh Man If only I could get LMIA, I would be in dream land. but no didn't got LMIA. I was working for one of the largest Bank so going through HR and convince them for LMIA is horrible. :'(

Btw thanks for clarification, I will just ask for new letter with end date with rest info as same.
