Keep the resignation or leave terms, benefit end dates, pension election notices and US enrolment information together. Record the source of each deadline. Separately retain the immigration records that establish status and authorized work, rather than treating HR correspondence as that evidence.
Resolve conflicting dates before making elections
If HR and the insurer give different end dates, ask the administrator responsible for the plan to clarify in writing. Do not choose the more favourable answer silently. Use confirmed information to assess any gap and ask what options exist if the work start changes.
The applicant supplies credential and identity evidence; the employer confirms the position and terms of employment. Build a compensation table directly from the signed offer: record each amount, its payment currency, frequency, and whether it is guaranteed cash, reimbursement, bonus, or estimated benefit. Canadian or Mexican citizenship and that profession’s prescribed qualification remain necessary; Canadian residence status alone does not qualify. A useful file separates identity, citizenship, engagement, qualifications, and temporary-purpose evidence. The transcript is usually the record that settles a disputed field of study; course descriptions explain an unusual program name. Bring the qualifying diploma, transcript, experience evidence and current fee information for the chosen route. Bring originals and copies; the officer may retain submitted supporting materials, so the applicant should keep a complete copy.
