Online - via CSC Application
Applicants can apply for Marriage Assistance (A.B.O.C.W.W.B) through the online - via csc application process outlined below.
Application Process
For help with registration applications and related tasks, workers can go to a CSC (VLE), which acts as an assistor to the applicant.
The nearest VLE can be approached for any assistance needed.
Note 01: CSC services engaged to help registered construction workers with registration and renewal only are free of charge. Workers must not pay any fee/gratitude/rebates to VLEs for these services.
Note 02: The only charge VLEs may levy is for printing the ID card, if a worker wants a printed Card; the Board notifies this rate and it is displayed at CSCs.
Note 03: Where a VLE's help is used, the VLE must keep a record of the reference/tracking number and also pass it on to the worker.
Note 04: Using the tracking ID, a worker can check the status directly or phone the concerned VLE, and VLEs must keep their telephone numbers on display at the centre at all times.
