Hi to all SG members,
Newbee here..:-)
Patulong naman po sa mga naka-encounter na ng ganitong sitwasyon.
Ang concern ko po ay regarding sa status ko. Ako po ay married pero lahat ng documents at passport ko ay gamit ko pa rin ang aking apelyedo nung ako ay dalaga pa. Plan ko na rin magpa-assess sa vetassess at ang ilagay ko na sana ay yung apelyedo ng asawa ko dun sa vetassess form at sa statutory declaration. Sa palagay nyo hindi kaya magkaproblema sa assessment pag ang ipapasa kong passport ay yung apelyedo ko nung dalaga ako.
Salamat

a) proceed with your application... lalo na lahat pala ng docs mo ay consistent as your maiden name...so walang problema..
- put your status as married, if they ask for proof, attach your marriage certificate..
- marami pong countries ang hindi nmn nagpapalit ng surname ang mga married women... so walang issue yun sa application..
b) or, if you decide to change your passport and other documents... wala ding problema, pero oras/pera ang kalaban mo.

I'm also Singapore based and I need your help with regards to Certified True Copies. It was suggested before that our documents can be certified by offices under Justice of Peace (http://app.sgdi.gov.sg/listing.asp?agency_subtype=dept&agency_id=0000003590) for free. However I emailed some of the addresses provided but they are asking for a charge that ranges from $3-5 each page
Let me know kung saan yung free. thanks!

Got an email from EA last Tues asking for detailed job description kasi wala ako sa 2 previous companies ko. Company A have already given papa CTC ko na kaso company B (still deadma mode yung senior manager ko) . I asked my colleague dati ko din Group lead kaso walang company letterhead pero willing sya bigay contacts and ID copy nya. So tinanong ko na kasi assessing officer ko if okay na yun ang sagot nya ito " I am sure your supervisor should be able to give an official reference letter. I leave it to him as to how he can prove that ....". Eh ayaw mag bigay din ng HR ng papel with letterhead only daw doon sa senior manager ko na ka hibernate mode.. Need help and inputs po.. Ano pwede legal docs to prove na totoo yung docs. Salamat ! Naka hold muna yung assessment ko , waiting for these 2 docs. Thanks po sa reply, anyone with the same experience pls share din po paano ginawa ..
