看得出,这是以接受单位的名义给我出具的OFFER,我的疑问是:

这封信就是所谓的邀请函么?

如果是,请问有没有不妥的地方,比如貌似太长、比如没有我的出生日期,比如落款、签字处是接收机构的秘书?或者还有其他我没看出来的问题?

这封信在CSC审查的时候能通过么?签证的时候有效么?

如果这封信不能作为邀请函,那我是不是还得联系外导,由外导出具邀请函?

麻烦有经验的虫子帮我看看,谢谢!

这个是offer letter,是院系发的,说明你导师已经与他们学校外事部门商量妥当了,所以导师同意要你了。
邀请函(invitation letter)一般是合作导师发的,而CSC要的一般也是邀请函。
所以最好还是导师给你出具个邀请函。
世事岂能尽如人意,但求无愧吾心

这是offer,也极可能是invitation letter,因为第二段提及"this invitation"。先别管这些,回应接受是最关键的,你顺便可以问一下这是否是正式邀请函,还需要你做什么。在这猜猜猜意义不大,老外希望直白干脆但不粗鲁哦,呵呵
