The letter should be on company stationary, signed by one in authority to provide employment information. It should include position, dates of employment and wage. Addressing to "to whom it may concern" is sufficient but it can be addressed directly to the Consul General if you prefer.

 

It need not be notarized.

 

Mine says,

 

To Whom It May Concern:

 

Please accept this letter as verification that NAME is an active emplyee of CO NAME. Mr NAME was hired on DATE. His current title is TITLE. Mr Name's salary is $. His gross income for 2005 was $.

 

If yu have any further questions or concerns, please contact the Human Resource Service Center at PHONE NUMBER.

 

Yours Sincerely,

 

 

Name

Human Resource Support Specialist

CO NAME

Also have them add whether or not the position is permanent

And I think that gross income for current year [2006] is more important to state.. Not sure this is a good sample provided above.

 

Here's the one in the CFL P3 FAQ:

 

"To whom it may concern: (first name,last name) has been employed full-time with the XYZ Company since 200_ as a (name of your job), and is an employee in good standing with an annual salary of $XXXX. Signed, John Doe, Supervisor (or whatever title)".

 

The employment letter does not need to be notarized. It should be on business letterhead. The human resource manager can sign it.

It is important to understand that there is no requirement to furnish a notarized letter from an employer along with the I-134, though many do it as a courtesy. It looks good to have it, and if you choose to provide it, it may well bode well for you in the decision-making process. If you so choose, it's a good idea to provide that letter as dictated in the I-134 evidentiary instructions (II Supporting Evidence; "B" -- Statement of your employer on busines stationary showing:

 

1. Date and nature of employment

2. Salary paid

3. Whether the position is temporary or permanent

 

Present only original versions of notarized documents, as copies of notarizations make the notarization ineffectual.

This may be a silly question, but will the signed employment contract from my employer be ok to use?

 

I have the original contract with my name, term of employment, salary, and signatures from myself and the company president. Is this ok, or does this need to be in letter form, i.e. dear US Consulate Visa Officer...?

 

Thanks!

That and a current pay-stub would satisfy me, if I were a VO.

You may have to pay attention to the date the contract was signed. GUZ may view it as old or expired, as they ask for a current letter of employment. A contract only shows as to what was agreed to in the past, not what is happening at the current date of time. JMHO.

I would not recommend an original contract as the OP states, particularly since we have no idea how old it is...

 

VOs tend to want everything as current as possible...
