Bit more info would be useful to people giving you advice, what type company, how long contacts, where, how long you been here.

Did they give any explanation of why? Technically if it's just a copy I don't think anyone will accept it as identity or for travel purposes.

It's actually the rear of the TRC that has the government stamp on it making it valid.. no stamp means it's worthless

It does take a genius to see how easily with the right materials it would be to make a fake one

Do you know if they just deferred the entire cost to be subtracted from your pay or did they pay any portion of it. It’s important for you to know.

" Ive been here since march. I dont have a contract, they say next week they will have for me to sign. I agreed stay a year back in may."

Sorry I'm confused you have had the TRC for 4 years while you have been here or?

Are you starting back in a school in Monday or private learning place? is it a private company has it or a Gov school?
