if i would request for a generic COE naman and just create a statutory declaration or reference letter to be signed by my current boss... hindi masyado applicable ang approach na to sakin, kase i handled different projects under different managers. hindi naman pwede isa isa ko sila papirmahin.
hayz...ano kaya? any advise? thanks.

So to cut the story short, na visa grant sya... Bottomline it, ikaw bahala what excuses you can come up with. If they will call your company though, wala ka magagawa dun.

Good Day sa ating lahat. .. May tanong sana ako regarding sa affidavit/Statutory Declaration. Yung company ko kasi dati sa Pinas eh nagclose. Yung dating manager ko eh nasa Singapore ngayun tapos andito ako ngayon sa Malaysia. Bale, format ng Pinas pa din ba susundin? Yung may nakalagay na "Republic of the Philippines"? Kasi plan ko sana eh ipapirma ko sa boss ko na nasa SG then dito ko sa Malaysia ipapanotaryo. Or dapat po ba eh sa SG ko ipanotaryo kasi andun siya? Kung sa SG ko ipapanotaryo, dapat po ba SG format din yung affidavit? Thanks in advance ..

Double check on this as some assessment agency might not accept self-stat declaration; for CPAA naman, it was accepted with no questions asked.

pero may mga multi-national din na ayaw magbigay as it is not in their company policy daw to provide such...

Yung isang company ko naman (na hindi agency), generic COE lang din daw ang ibibigay nila, so I created a reference letter for my IT manager to sign. This got to be printed on company letterhead.
tama ba mga pinaggagawa ko, hehehe... thanks.

I am having a problem requesting a detailed Certificate of Employment from the HR department of my previous company. Since my last designation was Internal Auditor, I requested a document from the department that states my job description (accountabilities). In the document the start date is from the time I was hired which is incorrect because my job before I became an auditor was only a bank clerk. Now, when I asked for a CoE from the HR, they can only give me a standard certificate which states my last designation and date I was hired till resignation. Kahit binigyan na ng details kung when at ung anong job title ko before ayaw naman.
My question now is kung magkakaproblema po ba ako if yung cert from HR and from the audit department with same date ang ipapasa ko sa VETASSESS? This would mean I have a 5-year experience as Internal Auditor rather than 3years.
Eto nga po pala nakalagay sa standard CoE:
"This is to certify that (my name) was an employee of (company) from date to date. She was last assigned at the Office of the Chairman as staff - job leve B."
Yan lang po ang kaya nilang ibigay na format. No last salary, "full time employee" and others.
Ano sa palagay nyo po?

So if I understand correctly, employment statements can be signed/given by someone who has been your superior kung hindi makakakuha sa HR. Pwede ba ito na dated as present as long as employee pa din ng said company yung undersigned? Given both cases, hindi na kakailanganin ng affidavit or stat dec?

- tama po si @psychoboy, supporting documents po ang payslip/ITRs.. kung anung meron kayo isubmit nyo lang (of course make sure na okay sa minimum requirements ng assessing body).. pag kulang sasabihan naman kayo ng CO..
- in my case sinubmit ko for each employment: COE+JD, 1 payslip/year, ITR per year.. para wala ng tanung ang CO.. ayaw ko nmn kasi ma-delay pa ang assessment..
