Hi,
So, I started my career as a website developer, and I developed a few websites for NGOs. Since the organizations where I worked were small, they didn't follow any statutory compliance. I was at a stage of my life where I didn't care about EPF, TDS, income tax, or salary slips (which was one of the biggest mistakes of my life). Now, the only thing I have is an experience letter and the contact of the organization. They are on LinkedIn and are easily reachable. All the contact details and experience letters are genuine. But I don't have any proof to show salary slips. Also, I don't have any work history record in my UAN; I never had PF at that time. The amount that I got was very low, so I never thought about Form 16 as well. Long story short, I worked really hard, and I'm not lying or providing any false information. I'm ready for any background verification check.
So, I would appreciate it if someone could suggest to me how to deal with the issues.

Hi,
No PF with the past employer is not a criterion. An experience certificate is okay to prove your employment, but equally important is salary proof. In the absence of a payslip, you can either use a bank statement showing the credit of monthly income or try to obtain a salary certificate from the past employer confirming remuneration. This would help you to some extent.

Hi,
Thank you so much for the suggestion, sir. The amount that I received was around 2k a month. Since it was a small amount, they paid me in cash, so I don't have any bank statement to show. I can ask them to mention the amount they paid me in my experience letter. Will it work?
Thanks and Regards,
