Mine just got rejected … hopefully Monday I’ll find out why and can provide additional data points. Took months for them to reject me btw

thanks Kim. If it was the employer letter, I’d really like to know what you provided.

Nothing fancy. Just stating you're an employee, for how long, you can work remotely, etc.

Specifically this portion of the BOI application. I’m looking for samples that have been accepted and successful.

A bit more to it than that. You have to prove the company you work for meets the criteria

It's spelled out much more specifically in the actual application. I have this visa.

It's the remote worker criteria for LTR. You're saying you just need a letter saying you can work remotely. I don't think so
