I did put it on my application. Of course, he gave me permission to do so. Your boss should be able to respond questions related to your application if asked. However, you don't need to worry if you don't get audited. Saving Changes...

I doubt PMI will ever call your boss directly even if your application gets audited. I was audited and all I had to provide was the information they requested and the people that can vouch for my experience. With that said, that was back in 2009. I would advise that before using anyone as a reference for anything, you should get their permission. Ask your boss, the best number and email address to list in case PMI needs to get in touch with him. Good luck!

I agree with my fellow colleagues that they usually ask for more documentation when auditing but to put your mind on ease, put his mobile no. Good Luck ! Saving Changes...
