Exactly, the regs state that employment must be verified through your prior employers! Says nothing about DAC! I know when I went to TMC, they had trouble getting verification for a local Asphalt company I had worked for! I had my wife go over to the owners home, with a letter stating the period of time I worked there, and that I left to go OTR (not bad behavior) and had him sign it, then faxed it to Des Moines to put in the file!
One time I had a 6 month lapse in verifiable employment, during an extended vacation, and trying to start my own business - I was required to have 3 people write letters and have them notarized stating that they knew me, my whereabouts during that time period, etc.!
There are ways to handle it, just depends on your attitude, and how badly you want to go to work for that company!
