Can I show my appointment letter? It has job responsibilities written?
does the letter have your salary details and working hours along with full roles and responsibilities? and do you get salary paid in bank account instead of cash ?
the trouble is i dont know what visa UAE issued you , if its proper work permit or not.

The letter has per hour salary but not complete hours written (it says variable hours). And I am on my husband's visa

I am working as a part time in dubai but my institution is not providing any letter saying that according to UAE law official letters cannot be provided to part timers. How can I show my experience Then?
Hi, you can give a letter from your colleague, if even that's not possible you can provide a notarized copy of self declared reference letter. But you need to back it up with official communications that your current employer isn't giving you the reference letter.

Salary comes in my cash.
well its too risky - from what i have learnt and seen i dont think you can claim points for this

without this experience, do you have 3 yrs+ full time proveable work experience in the last 5-10 years? if yes, you can use that information and apply for EE.

Okay, there might be something special in UAE. What other options does he/she has? I fail to believe that application can't be taken forward if you don't have the reference letter from employer.

Hi Guys,

I am having the same issue with experience letter. I was working in an IT company back in 2007 to 2009 but now this company has been closed but I still have an experience letter from the company. The thing is the letter is in my email not in hard copy. Would it worth it to send the printed copy of the letter for EE or not?

The thing is I have been living in the UK since 2011 and did my BSc here and started full-time employment in 2015 but I was working as software developer in Pakistan after completion of my certifications. So the work experience I had in 2007 is in Pakistan.
Thanks

If you're claiming points for this job and only the reference letter is missing, submit as many additional documents as you can. For example, pay slips or bank documents showing salary deposits, work contract, employment letter, promotion letter, resignation or relieving letter etc.

Hard copies are preferred because they're written on company letterhead and have more credibility than letters sent on email. However, if the letter was sent from an official email address to your official email address, than you can notarise it to add validity.

Good luck.

Thanks, @Wandering Mind. Really appreciate that. I don't think so I would include that reference letter because I don't have payslips because at that time we were getting paid in cash. I only have a proof that it came from original email. I also have the contract but in soft copy.

If you've had other jobs and better paperwork for them, then it's a good idea to only show those.

Good luck.
