How to Write a Confirmation Letter?
Here are some tips for you if you plan to compose a Letter of Confirmation for business purposes:
- Remain professional and formal - remember that you write a letter for your future or current employee or a client you have worked with and will do business in the future, so choose an appropriate tone;
- List all the details required from you. A document that confirms the employee has worked for you for a certain period of time must contain the date they were hired and a short description of their duties - ask the employee if they need a breakdown of their wages, bonuses, and benefits. If you represent a bank, only provide details you were asked for - maybe, you need to outline the transactions of the last month or year. However, if you have encountered problems with your customer you may mention there have been delays in payments and debts;
- Indicate your contact information and offer the recipient of the document to stay in touch - it is possible you will be asked to share more details or you need to invite the addressee for job orientation.
A Catholic Confirmation Letter differs from other documents - you can prepare it for your relative, friend, or a parishioner. In this personal statement, you need to emphasize the importance of this religious practice, congratulate the person on taking this crucial step, and add a couple of inspirational quotes from the Bible. Additionally, you can use a warmer tone and even write several pages since this document will be seen by one individual and has no legal standing.
