Proof of Foreign Work Experience under Express Entry

[uppperkut]

Hello,

I have a question.
For the evidence of foreign work experience, I can get a reference letter with all detailes from my previous company, but I don't have pay stubs because it was 7-10 years ago. I asked my previous company to print them again, but they don't keep them anymore because it's long time ago.
How can I do for this situation?

Paystubs are optional additional documents. If you get other supporting documents, it helps your case for sure.

Thank you so much for replying my question.
I might able to get the contract paper with them, but I'm worried that I cant prove any payment evidence. I hope it will be okay.

How about showing salary deposits into your account through a bank statement?

I closed my bank account which I used for getting my payment when I left my country but I think it's good point! Thank you!

IRCC just wants to make sure you worked a full/part time paid job at that particular place and carried out the relevant tasks and duties to the NOC you chose. They don't care how much you were paid or how. The letter itself is the main requirement, but other documents I personally used can include:
- Manager's business card
- Job contract
- Promotion letters
- Work permits

Make sure your letter is complete and looks authentic (on letterhead and stamped). Hopefully your company has online presence too as IRCC seems to use that as a first (and sometime only) method of verification.

Than you so so much upperkut!
My previous company in my country found my old Paystubs, so I'm asking an official translator to make it in English.
Thank you for your help

Hi guys, Could you guys give me an advice?
I am currently working as a technical sale executive (transfer salary through the bank and pay taxes in full). I started working for 2 months as a probationary from June 1, 2020, and officially is August 1, 2020. I cannot work until the next august to have a full year because i need to arrive to Canada for studying.

So as far as I understand that I need a reference letter and payroll statement (additional)? So can the salary (through bank) and time of probational period (having appointment letter) be counted in to full 52 weeks of full time according to government law? Or is it compulsory to calculate at the official time (starting date in labor contract)?

Please help me. Thanks very much.

Hi guys,

I just wanted to ask how I would be able to prove my foreign work experience if my previous work place had closed down?

before I left, I requested for an employment certificate. After 2 years that I left, they closed down.

Thank you!

Hi, everyone. I was just wondering if instead of "annual salary plus benefits", would it be accepted as just "monthly salary"? (my previous employer wrote just this information) Any opinion from who had the same issue or who are experts in the field, is more than welcome. Thank you! Regards,

Is there any change in proof of documents or it's same reference letters and paystubs
