Default Is it enough to provide employer reference for my current job?

Hi folks,

Am I still have to provide employer reference from my previous
employer that I left him almost two years and half?

Will it be enough to provide an experience letter from that x-employer
that he provided me at that time?

I have made the employer reference ready from my current employer,
will that be enough ?

IMHO, an intending migrant to Australia should provide as much
information as possible.

Have personally known Americans to be "knocked back" and refused
a current or future application because they tried to conceal a
fairly minor brush with the law.

The case I'm thinking of is a U.S. friend who tried to conceal a
conviction for the offense of "drunken driving".

In the US, and in many other countries, something like this is
a matter of public record. Even where it isn't, governments can
seek info from other governments.

IMHO, if he had declared the arrest for driving over the
limit, Australian officials would have taken it pretty lightly.

As it happened, though, they felt that he was dishonest in trying
to conceal his record, denied his migrant visa application, and
even told him that he need not bother to reapply in the future.

He died a few years back. Unfortunately he didn't contact me
before he filed his migrant visa application, or would have told
him not to try to conceal anything.

If I were an immigration official, I probably would have "knocked
back" his application whether I knew him personally or not.

Perhaps my individual personality structure, but I expect all
people to be honest with me at all times.

Cheers,

I suggest that you read the ACS guidelines or get professional help.
