Benefits missing in Reference Letter

[Aguntupalli]

Hello Everyone,

My employer issued me a reference letter will all the required details except "Benefits".Is that going to be a problem?
I have taken 5 weeks of unpaid vacation.But , I have ensured that 52 full weeks of full time employment will be completed before submitting the application.
Do I have to mention it separately or will CIC figure it out from T4 and paystubs?
I dont want to create doubt and confusion by writing a separate letter.

Please advise,
Thanks,

Generally, no, but it depends on what the benefits are... and whether they are in lieu of compensation which would convince the VO that you are performing skilled work.

What matters is that 52 full weeks are completed by the date at the top of the letter...

Do I have to mention it separately or will CIC figure it out from T4 and paystubs?

They certainly can... we have seen many times that if there's a big gap in pay received vs the pay stated in the letter, it will cause the VO to doubt the information provided...

I dont want to create doubt and confusion by writing a separate letter.

Better to address it up front...
