Is appointment letter required for job confirmation?

[dhoni Gibson]

Hi All,

I have got JOB offer from ABC(US) company upon giving me an offer letter in which my paystub (without salary break-ups), company benefits etc are mentioned. can i take this as my enagement with the ABC company is confirmed and quit my current company.

i heard the job offers are made usually by giving offer letter and not through appointment letters; is this true?

if above said is not the case, then i need to ask for an appointment letter from my future employer , so that i confirm my employement with the ABC corp.

I am currently in working visa and visa transfer is in process. please advice on this

Thanks in advance

Yes, especially if they've filed your visa paperwork. if they weren't serious about hiring you, why would they do this?

What is an appointment letter? I've never received one.

Cheers!
