    Thanks lone wolf. The main issue I have is that companies are asking for a work history and proof by means of ax returns.

    If no tax returns/W-2 the notorized affidavit/letters are requested. Get your letters/tax or whatever and start applying. Go with TMC & Swift for starters with their veterans programs. Flatbed is better than dry van & Swift has a flatbed division.

    the Swift "scholarship" has an employment obligation most trainees fail to fulfill for various reasons . Carrier " paid " training should be avoided .

    From what I understand, swift prefers some time behind the wheel with a dry van first

    They probably figure anyone that can't fill out a tax return is incapable of filling out a logbook and getting bills and DVIR's turned in .
