This query is : Resolved
I accepted a job in may 2016 and filled consent form in same month. I joined that organisation in june 2016 after giving 30 days notice to my previous employer. Not sure when my co. started by BGV and after 6 month in dec. 16 they told me to resign as they were not able to verify 1 of my previous employment and I do not have proof of employment with me. 1) Just want to know for how many days consent form is valid (In US it is valid for 30 days only not sure about India). 2) Is it important to sign manually on consent form or e-signature is also valid. 3) Is there any law in India that BGV needs to be completed before employment start date or it can be done anytime.

All statements and declarations are valid perpetually as you are expected to give only facts.
The company needs to give you an opportunity to prove your truthfulness of your declarations. In case its not given you seek for lacuna of your statement and set it right with documents you have.
