The details of the FE is verified and approved if all the terms and conditions are met. Once approved the FE becomes a registered employer and gets a username and password. The procedure to fill the online form has been explained through videos in the Resources tab of the website (www.emigrate.gov.in).

The details regarding the procedure can be viewed on the website https://emigrate.gov.in. Click “Employer” on the top menu and then click “Employer training videos.” This will open a zip file containing video clippings explaining the steps starting from Registration to Raising Demand through Registered Agents (RAs).
