How to arrange documents?

[dimple34]

Hi there,

This is how I am planning to organise my documents.

Category: CEC

Education (diplomas/degrees)

• WES report.
• Degree
• Marksheets
• IELTS

Employment Records (I have worked for ONE company in India and Canada)

• Employer Reference Letter
• Pay Stubs (Canadian Experience)
• T4
• Tax Form (Indian Experience)
• Offer letter
• Pay Stubs (Canada)

1. Can you guys please tell me if below ordering looks good?
2. Should I also attach Work permits, previous Transfer letters (when I was transferred to Canada) along with other employment docs?
3. In LOE, should I explain the order in which docs are attached in PDF?

Thank you.

Hi dimple34
You are overthinking all of this quite a bit Putting care into your application is important, but you shouldn't stress over something as innocuous as the order of your documents

Provide exactly what CIC asks for and then, if you want to provide additional documents "just in case", then by all means go ahead.

I don't think the order really matters. As long as the document is uploaded where it should be uploaded, CIC will find it. Some people go as far as creating a cover page with a table of contents for each group of documents they upload. But, while all of this is going the extra mile, it's unnecessary

Focus on making sure the specific documents that CIC asks for are in perfect order (as these are really the only ones that matter). Everything else after that is just an added bonus and you shouldn't tear your hair out over them.

For degree, keep degree scan first, mark sheets next, followed by eca and ielts trf. Because degree scan is the most important document for that placeholder, rest are good to have documents. So keep that first.. who knows when a officer would have a bad day and doesn't want scroll further !

For jobs it could be like Canada reference letter, Indian reference letter, one dividing page with title supporting documents for Canadian employment, put everything related, and another dividing page saying Indian employment supporting documents, and put Indian employment documents.

I suggest you to keep a table of contents as first page to say what documents you are providing in the pdf. Page number could be pdf page number.
