Looking to Work Do CDL Training with Knight but They Want My W-2's

Didn't you save your tax returns? You can get copies of your tax returns from the IRS and your credit report will show your places of employment.

 

What transcripts are you referring to?

 

IRS aka Taxs, like i said its been a while sense I messed with any of this.

 

Just curious; Does anyone know if a company (or anyone else, for that matter) could check an individuals' past employment without consulting tax records?

I would think, in this gilded age of computers that there is likely yet another specific, for profit, reporting program (simaliar to DAC, Experian, Trans Union, Etc.) to provide just about any type of background information on any individual.

Perhaps something like jobsforslobs.com; Subscribe now and receive one month free with a five year contract for just $119.00 a month! (early termination fees apply).

 

The reason that you have to get a permit before hand is because Knight is not set up for students to utilize their address as a temporary one to go to a local DMV and get their permit. So they require ALL students to show up with at least their Permit.

 

This only goes back so far though, as i needed some of mine to verify i worked for Millis, since they told me their records didnt go that far back, in my case about 20 years. So i contacted the IRS and the link they sent me to go that far back would cost me $50 for each W-2 i needed

 

I'll have my CDL A license, have a permit right now, by the end of next week. I asked for a pre-hire letter and they are going to send it. I'm enrolling into the squire program? Where I do 2-3 days orientation and sit with a trainer for 4 weeks in a truck. I wasn't told that I needed to bring w-2s but I saw on here you did. I had to ask my recruiter if i should bring my self employment w-2s. Are they just checking to make sure you were employed? I don't get it. And she told me to bring everything in person, not to fax or e-mail it... I don't want to be carrying my w-2s for 4 weeks...

 

This is pretty common as trucking company's as they have to verify and file your employment information for the last I think 10 years.. Just make copy's and take the copy's and after they are done with it they can shared it right there for ya. The other option is they can just have the IRS fax them the info they need with ya standing there. =)

 

Yes they need it for employment verification. Sucks, but it is needed by the company for hiring. Also if you have any breaks in employment make sure you have at least 2 family and 2 non family references that you can list to verify your "non criminal acts" during that time period.

 

I just had a bad experience with knight squire. I do not recommend it. I'm going to a different company.
