guys my bro got an ITA on jan 4th his points were at 473, now his HR is giving him a hard time for the employer letter they r basically stating that he worked part time for 1st year when he actually worked 30 hrs or more each week for 11 n half months in his 1st yr for manager in training position n for the 2nd yr that wrote he was full time, he worked 15 months as a store manager since he claimed points for 2 yrs of cec, we r wondering should he write an explanation letter n attach the pay stubs or should he decline the ITA n wait for the nxt draw since points r getting reduced now. what do u guys suggest?
1) IRCC doesn't care whether the employer considers it "full time" or "part-time", only the hours worked per week. If he worked 30 or more hours per week, it is full-time; fewer than 30, it is part-time. The letter of reference should state the number of hours worked per week; if it does not, he needs to provide alternative documentation.
2) If he is paid an hourly wage, paystubs - if he has them all, and they list the # of hours worked per week - are a very good way to prove the # of hours worked per week.
It is more difficult if he is salaried; then he would need a copy of a contract etc. to prove the expectations about # of hours. And/or a letter from a colleague/co-worker...
3) he should provide the T4 and NOA regardless...
4) BTW even if he worked part-tiem (fewer than 30 hours per week) the experience still counts, it just has to be prorated (total # hours /30 = # FTE weeks).
