Sa isang employer ko dito sa sg ay ITR at 1 payslip lang pinasa ko together with COE, referral letter and copy ng work pass ko kasi andun din nakalagay ang name ng company. Hindi naman ako hiningan ng iba pang docs from that employer.
Yong other employer ko naman sa pinas is wala akong payslip kaya ITR and statement of account (BPI) lang pinasa ko as supporting docs. Ok naman lahat.
