Hi Luder,
Scan the new one with its biodata page,visa and stamps also the same thing with the old passport then merge in one file.......they will understand it, you have nothing to worry about
Thanks Arcayo

I was thinking about not including my old passport at all. But you are right although it is invalid now it has all the old travel histories and valid endorsements.

Thanks and I'll do the same.

Regards

Luder

Hi friends

It really is a big problem when it comes to experience reference letters.

It seems like I have two big issues

1. My reference letter I submitted to NSNP and got nominated. Now I have to upload the same letter to CIC. The letter has exactly all the requirements as per NSNP and CIC (IRCC). The person who signed the letter is my immediate shift supervisor. As per my institution's practice I have to report to duty to my department manager but not to my immediate supervisor although I work under him whenever we are in same shifts.

The reason why I didn't get the letter from my manager is quite simple. As always in most institutions my manager refused to give the letter as I requested with details in it. Since my immediate supervisor was very friendly and helpful I just used it for my benefit. But my manager knowing this matter raised issues saying my immediate is not authorized to give letters in company letter head. So to be on safer side I enquired the HR department whether the letter is valid or not.

The HR manager responsible for our departments said that as of now there is no policy saying whether or not a supervisor is eligible to give reference letters in company's letter head. But on the other hand we have governing bodies for a group of institutions on which our institution belongs is the one to decide that. So he said in case of a verification in future for such letters he cannot guarantee how the senior management team would respond. They may acknowledge the letter or simply reply to the verification that the person signed is not an authorized person although he works for the same company.

Now my question is how the CIC carries its verification procedure. If they verify through the company I may get into trouble but if they directly call my immediate supervisor (he has mentioned his personal phone number and email in the letter) I will have no trouble hopefully.

2. My second problem is.,

While sending the application to NSNP there was no need for spouse's employment experience letter to be attached but now in CIC express entry profile I have to upload my spouse's experience letter too.

To our dismay my spouse works in a sister company where I worked and has the same trouble of getting experience letter as per CIC's requirement.

My question is whether this letter should also have same details or what if I send a very basic letter with only the period of employment and designations held? Will CIC be little liberal as it is only spouse's letter and mine is sufficient enough with all the details needed?

Friends suggest your opinions and please also share if any of you have been in the same situation.

Thanks and regards

Luder

Dear drajpoot,

I received AOR today as of October 6, 2016 at 8:30 pm IST.

There are few queries in which I would like to seek your help.

1. They asking to reply within "5 business days". Question is whether Saturdays and Sundays excluded in these 5 days?
2. They are asking to send them a NOC table, had sent a table format also. Question is how to prepare table? Do I have to get a printout of table after writing duties and responsibilities, scan it and send it OR just use the excel sheet to fill that up and send it? Could I get a sample of that from any site?
3. I have changed my job since I had sent my application to NS in September 2015. Job changed in April 2016. Actually, my company merged with bigger company and now my enrollment has been changed from previous to current one, but employer being same and only company name changed. Do I have to send a copy of new appointment letter, new job duties, etc as supporting documents along with my reply?

Regards,

Monvik
Congrats Monvik... :D

Hi Guys,

I am Rocky and I am new here because I recently found this forum.

I just got my nomination yesterday.

Please anyone tell that "What will be the next step and How to submit application to CIC? "

Would it be a hard copy application or can apply online to CIC?

How the province will send me the Nomination Certificate? Will it be a hard copy or will they send it through email?

Regards
