I'd like to know that How can I provide contract letter with my previous employee as I was on probationary period and was only issued an appointment letter before I joined. I took that appointment letter with a Joining letter and continued the job for a year. I'd get a contract had I stayed there for over a year. I resigned from that job exactly after an year. Afterward, I joined this current job where I am leading the IT team for over an year now.

So , What to say to CIC about this?

Anxious ! waiting for your replies ! Thanks a lot.
 
appointment letter is fine. that is what they mean.
 
All you need is notarized appointment letter to CHC. Appointment letter itself is sufficient. In india I have not seen any employee getting any additional contract other than appointment letter.
 
But my 2nd job Appointment letter ony contained the following Info:

Designation
Salary
Period: Probationary (1 yr), permanent or not, decision would have been taken after an year.

Nothing more, Nothing was written about duties or responsibilities.
 
They ask for two things i think. One is appointment letter and another is a letter regarding your service from HR or from a manager. The second one should say your duties. Well, I am no expert, but that is how mine were. All my contracts/appointment letters say my title, initial salary, etc but it was the letters from the HR or manager that stated my duties. Can you get a letter from someone from your previous job.
 
Ok Rupesh and all, I got your points.
I am gonna ask my 2nd job's manager to provide me with a reference letter with his business card. lets see what he says, If he denies, I will let this know to CIC.
 
make sure that letter has all the required information as specified by appendix A.
 
Appendix A ? Where is it?
 
When you look at the forms online on cic website. there should be a link to visa office specific forms. Those are appendix A.
 
Yah, for me its Singapore.
 
did you find appendix A
 
yah, it says : Contract letter is a must. as well as the reference letter.
all from past and present employers.
it also says if you cant provide a ref letter from your current employer, state the reason why.
