Gather the offer, duties, citizenship evidence and relevant credentials, together with any immigration history or arrangement that requires closer review.
Find gaps while options remain open
Ask the employer to resolve unclear duties or conditions before relying on the proposed schedule. Obtain genuine supporting records rather than changing occupational wording to fit a category. Keep any anticipated future role separate from the position being assessed now.
The most useful thing an employer can provide is specific and boring: a letter that names the employing entity precisely, describes the professional duties in operational language, identifies the listed profession being claimed, and states the period and terms of engagement. An offer letter states what the employer intends; a statement of work, purchase order or client services agreement states what was actually bought, and where those two describe different activities the second usually carries more weight because a third party signed it. The letter should name the profession as Appendix 2 words it, describe the clinical duties concretely, and state the salary, the reporting line and the period requested; the credential is proved by the parchment, the transcript and the certificate of registration together.
