Previous employer sg: 7 months payslips (combination of 2008 and 2013.
Current employer sg: all payslips
Iras tax assessment: 2008 to present? All payslips and iras assessment submitted na nung nag lodge ka po ba? Then nanghingi prin ng contract?
Confirm ko lng din kung Nag submit ka nman ng coe mo rin with job descriptions?
And may i ask kung 2008 yung starting year mo sa previous employer mo?
Im just assuming lng kasi kya naghahanap ng contract bec 2008 was not your starting year for the past employer (nakasulat sa contract ang starting date kasi) OR bka naghahanap sila ng job descriptions na pwede naka indicate din sa contract.
Pasensya na. Iniisip ko kasi Ihahabol ko kasi contract ko din sa docs attached ko. Kaso may nakalagay kasi sa contract ko na private sya between company and employee. So nagdadalawang isip ako. So analyzing your case bket humingi ng contract will help me to decide. Habang wala pa dibp email.
Thanks..

Late 2007 ang start of work then IRAS TAX assessment from year dated 2009 (Work year 2008) until 2016. All CPF contributions dated Jan 2009 until Jan 2016 nag upload din ako.
All COE was submitted as per requirements and job descriptions.. I guess the main reason is initially kasi wala ko payslip for my first company buti may nakita ko kahit konti. Then I uploaded din confirmation letter from first company dated Dec 2007. Kaya cguro nag require ng contract which i think di na din necesarry cguro kasi ok na nman yung skill assessment ko covered nman 9 yrs plus. Not sure about the main reason about the CO contact ng "employment evidence. Buti meron pa sa email ko ng contract ko dated 2007. Uploaded na din.
Hopefully ok na lahat... Goodluck satin!

@tweety11 @auitdreamer @rami
Eto understanding ko sa case mo po rami..
Claimed years of exp is 9 yrs..
If started oct 2007, then on Oct 2016 meron ka nang 9 yrs experience.. But since no proof of paid employment ang year 2007. So mangyayari january 2008 yung start ng bilang ng exp mo and mag 9 yrs ka lng ngayong january 2017... kya ka hiningan ng contract.. makikita sa contract ang salary offered. And pw3de yun as proof ng paid employment i guess, and pra ma claim mo yung points for 9 yrs..
--------------------------
Kinakabahan ako kasi 1st employer ko wala ko khit anong proof of paid employment and closed na sya, so impossible na makahingi pa ako ng copies ng itr or payslips.. no contract as well na na keep ako. Coe lng tlaga.. Pero hoping hindi na nila ko hingan ng evidence. Kasi combination ng current employer and 2nd employer ko is enough pra sa claimed number of exp ko na 5 yrs lng.
Malalaman nten. [-O<

@ska1119 Baka makakuha ka pa ng proof ng SSS remittances?
Normally, humihingi lang naman sila ng mga additional proof pra sa mga work na may claimed points di ba? Pag non-relevant work naman medyo wapakels sila? May nagkaexperience na hiningan sila kahit for non-relevant work?
