Rules of the Perspective Statement

What are the rules when applying for a Perspective Statement?

It is important to know that a Perspective Statement is not the same as an employer's statement. When applying for a mortgage, it is therefore important that you check this with your mortgage advisor. In a lot of cases, an employer's statement is sufficient.

Rules

• At the time of the application, you have been working at Manpower for at least 26 weeks. If you have worked for us for between 26 and 52 weeks, an additional condition applies: you must have worked for at least 12 months in the past 14 months. You also sign a statement with us in regard to this. The Perspective Statement is valid for 6 months after issue.*
• You can only apply for a mortgage if you have the Perspective Statement in your possession. If you have already applied for a mortgage without the Perspective Statement being issued, you risk a fine.
• The provision of the Perspective Statement is not a matter of course. You will only receive a Perspective Statement if the overall picture is positive. Your file must be complete, you must have good references and assessments and a positive perspective on the labor market.

* In some cases, you are also eligible for a perspective statement if you have worked through one of these employment agencies. However, you must have worked for the other employment agency for at least 26 weeks or 12 consecutive months of the past 14 months and you have not switched to Manpower on your own initiative. Do you have a question about this? Please contact us.

Important!

Whether you are ultimately eligible for a Perspective Statement depends on your resume, references, assessments and perspective on the labour market. A good perspective on the labour market does not immediately lead to the granting of the Perspective Statement. The overall picture influences and decides this. It is therefore recommended to start updating your documents now!

What documents do you need?

• An up-to-date resume, including company names, job titles, explanation of job content and dates (minimum month and year from start to end of position)
• Copy of your highest obtained diploma mentioned on your resume
• Two references from previous employers

I have the Perspective Statement, now what?

Once you have received the Perspective Statement, you can go to a mortgage advisor and to the bank.
