    Used to be you had to go back ten years of work history. Think they said that was a federal requirement.
    Just be advised when going otr, your social life will go to being non existent. I used to know a LOT of people in my area, but when I went trucking they thought I either died or went to the pen.
     
    lual Thanks this.

    Did you file tax returns for those years you weren't working?
    If so those returns are all you need.

    The regs do not require that you were working at a job for the 3 years. If you have a way to document what you were doing for the period, that may satisfy many companies. You should be able to do this with references to people that knew what you were doing.

    Tanker Schools in Houston, but the terminal i was based was Reserve LA.
    That’s where the trainer was based too.

    Their other tank school is Coroapolis PA
