letterhead is strict requirement for every COE. Otherwise make statutory declaration and explain why Reference letter or COE is not written on official company paper.
Statutory declaration should be supported with (and not limited to): pay slips, contract, role assignments, company memo related to you, etc., or any proof of employment that will satisfy the case officer.

Kung kayo ang gumawa at pinapirmahan nyo lang, make sure hindi kayo ilalaglag ng pumirma at alam nya ang details na pinirmahan nya. Kasi baka "nganga" sya pag tumawag ang case officer.
Cheers.

Ang meron lang ako ay:
1. Contract ko nung probationary ako, nakalagay yung start date tska working hours ko (nung naregular ako wala ng pinapirmahan sakin);
2. Employment certificate na may job description kahit papano, may start date kaso iba dun sa probationary contract ko (mas maaga ng 5 days), tska ang purpose eh para sa pag take ko ng RME ang nakaspecify.
3. Clearance certificate na nakalagay yung effectivity ng resignation ko tska na cleared ako sa company. Naibigay nila kasi agad sakin, sa kasamahan ko nakahold eh.
4. BIR 2316 for 3 years
5. Bank account statement from BDO (parang notepad lang, DOS p ata gamit nila) tska mga payslip ko pero di kumpleto.
Yung first 3 pirmado ng VP namin tska naka letterhead, pwede na kaya tong mga to as paid work tska relevant experience evidence? meron din akong photocopy ng ID ng VP namin na may specimen signature nya. Wala akong business card nya pero pwede ako magprint, may template ako.
3 yrs. 5 mos. ako dito pero di naging maganda pag alis ko (mali ng company). Ano bang pwedeng gawin kung sakaling manirya yung mga yun? Naghihintay pa ko hanggang May, isasabay daw sa last pay ko. Kung sakaling may mag verify di naman nila ako pwedeng ideny dahil resigned naman ako.
Salamat sa mga makakatulong sakin.

Newbie po s thread na to. Regarding po sa copy ng pag-ibig contribution, kelangan bang ipacertify at ilagay yung contact details ng staff na nagprint? Naka-note kasi sa copy na "for reference only. This doc is not an official print out."
Thank you po sa makakasagot!

For each position, you need to provide official evidence of your employment detailing the employer's name, the period of employment, the position held, the main tasks and hours of work for each position.
In addition to evidence of a Statement of Service from your employer, you are required to provide official evidence that the employment was paid, such as payslips and taxation records. VETASSESS will only assess listed employment positions supported with complete documentation.
Please note that you are required to provide an Organisational Chart (on company letterhead) highlighting your duties, if nominating a managerial occupation.
Evidence of employment includes, but is not limited to, the documents listed below.
If you worked for an employer:
a) Evidence of tasks performed at the skill level of your nominated occupation
a Statement of Service or Reference Letter from your employer for the required information for this document
a Statutory Declaration if you are unable to obtain a Statement of Service as described above. This should be verifiable and supported by other evidence such as Appointment Letter, Official Position Description and evidence of paid employment. A Statutory Declaration on its own will not suffice as evidence of tasks performed.
an organisational chart if nominating a managerial occupation.
b) Evidence of paid employment - at least one of the following:
payslips
payment summaries for taxation
taxation records of assessment which show the company name
superannuation records.
I am really confused how or what items to get. Both my employers are in PH and SG. My dilemma is:
1. My PH employer 1 already died and i do not have copy of payslips through bank bec. It was an ojt paid training by cash. I can always ask for COE from his wife etc. Can we reproduce payslips and have it signed instead?
2. My other employer is based in PH and our boss is an architect from SG. He is not registered in PH only in SG and i am confused how to present evidence of salary as well bec. I do not have payslips and some payments were initially paid thru cash prior to a bank payroll. I can present bank statements for some but not all.
I am really confused how to have these evidences. Can anyone advise who has applied from VETASSESS?

New member here. Magtanong lang po ako regarding sa COE, nangyari din po sa akin kasi na ung employer nagalit sa akin, in effect ayaw din ako bigyan ng COE, and worse, lahat ng co-worker ko pinagbawalan na bigyan ako ng help like recommendation letters, or anything to testify for me. Ngayon po ang plan ko is I will make Self-Statutory Declaration, with the following supporting documents:
- Bank Statement
- Company ID
- Payslips (even though I am the preparer si I assume weak evidence siya)
- Employment Contract
- Form 2316 (ITR, again, ako ang nkapirma on behalf of my boss)
- BIR Form 1604CF (again, ako ang nkapirma on behalf of my boss, even though may attachment ne BIR acknolwedgement receipt from email), with alphalist
- SSS, PHIC and HDMF Contributions List (to prove na nging employers ko tlga sila, PHIC and HDMF still pending)
- Resignation Letter
- Summary of Compensation and Allowances (self-made reconciliation since ung amount per bank statement n nka-reflect is may kasamang allowance, so kelangan ma-trace ung part ng salary per payslip)
When I inquired sa notary (ung sa Cityland sa likod ng PBCom), usually daw ang stat dec is prepared by someone and usually daw co-worker. I am having issues with this as I said, mhihirapan ako mg-ask ng help kht sa former co-workers ko.
Your help is much appreciated. Thank you.
