Law/Patents - Finance (general) / Contracheque | | Portuguese term or phrase: Civil Ativo | On this 'contracheque' it gives information about the person including their CPF and the university position they hold and says:
Regime Juridico: Civil Ativo. Does this refer to their legal status? How might I translate 'Civil Ativo' to UK English? Thanks for your help! |
