Frequently asked questions

What is the employment record used for?
The employment record is a document that confirms all your social security contributions throughout your professional career. You need it to calculate your retirement pension, claim unemployment benefits, get a mortgage loan, justify work experience before an employer, or apply for residence in another country.
When do I need to have the most up-to-date employment record?
Many procedures require that the record be less than 3 months old. As it is immediate and free, always download it on the same day you need it to ensure its current status.
What if there are gaps in my employment history?
If you notice missing periods of contribution or errors, you can contest them by presenting your contracts, payslips, or any document that proves the employment relationship. Go to your province’s Social Security office or file it through Importass.
Can I request someone else's employment record?
No, unless you are their legal representative (guardian, power of attorney). The employment record contains protected personal data and can only be accessed by the holder or a person with powers.
Is the digital version as valid as the printed one?
Yes. The PDF downloaded from Importass has exactly the same legal validity as a physical certificate. It includes the CSV verification code that allows any institution to verify its authenticity online.
