My background:
At first I thought they were asking for additional documents for Company A. I paniced a bit as Company A no longer exists and I already tried my best to get in contact with my manager in Company A to write a letter for me. The letter met IRCC's requirements (with a company letter head, with salary and duty, etc). It's impossible for me to get more documents within 7 days.
Then I noticed the word "current". Okay, that's easy. So I submitted the lastest pay stub of Company B.
But the entire thing is still strange:
Can anyone shed some light on this? Thanks.
- I have several years of work experience in my home country (Company A)
- I came to Canada and got my Master's Degree
- After graduation, I have been working in Canada since January 2022 (Company B)
- I created my EE profile and was eligible for FSW (and FSW only)
- I applied for PNP and got 600 points added to my EE profile; then I have ITA in PNP stream
- In the application, I submitted a letter from my manager in Company A as proof of work experience

- Why are they asking for document of my current employer? FSW does not require Canadian employment, nor is the PNP I got invitied for. I am not eligible for CEC anyway because I worked for Company B for less than 1 year.
- On the document upload page, the text actually reads "Replacement Needed: Employment Records - [my title at Company A]".
Can anyone shed some light on this? Thanks.
