    hello peeps.. up ko lang po yung question ko. nagstart na kame magcompile ng ipapa ctc.. sana po may makasagot :) salamat ng marami.
    eujin said:

    guys, need din ba namen magprovide ng proof of employment for partner na kinuhanan ng partner points (+5) ? or Ok na yung assessment ni partner?
    AFAIK, competent english at valid assessment lang ang need.
    Not sure kung nagchecheck din ba si CO kung tama ba ung assessment ng partner and isa isahin din yung employment niya. Need din ba magprovide ng partner ng payslips, and all?

    hope someone had the same experience and pashare naman po kung ano ni-provide nyo for partner :)
    salamat po ng marami!

    thanks sa response @tweety11 ... lahat lang po ng evidences pero for primary lang. ( payslips, sss contrib, ITRs).. naisip ko lang baka maghanap din si CO ng proof just like these for dependent kaya gusto kong isabay na yung aken sa pag ctc,..

    Hi @towbee, good to hear. thanks sa response. :)

    Hello @tweety11 , sa visa lodging na po. may nakita kasi ako dito sa signature nya, yung additional requirements na hiningi ng co, ctc ng docs. hehe..
    anyway, i'll take your advise din.. ontian nalang namen ung ipapactc. maybe ung black and white nalang siguro. nagmahal na din kasi ang pa-ctc dito sa sg. may additional fee na on top ng per document price.. :(

    a year from now, you will wish you had started today

    Paste ko rin dito. I will appreciate your answers .. any idea po sa case ko. Ok lang kaya to

    Question po:

    Meron ba same sa case ko na during the eoi yong related occupations lang nilagay nyo?

    Sa immiaccount kasi ilagay mo dapat ang jobs mo for the past 10 years. Tapos magclick ka lang kung magclaim ka ng points sa job nato.

    Ok lang kaya na sa EOI ko yong tatlong companies lang nilagay ko na makakuha ako ng points. Tapos sa immiaccount ilalagay ko na lahat ung mga jobs ko in tha past 10 years?

    Any idea?
