Dear Sir/madam,

Subject: Letter requesting a job transfer.

This is to bring to your attention that I would like to request a job transfer to a different location, within the organization. I am hereby making a formal request for a transfer to Madurai city office, which is closer to my native place and parents’ home than Chennai. I would prefer taking care of my elderly parents and spending more time with them.

I have currently completed all the tasks assigned to me corresponding to this financial year and submitted them to my immediate superior. Therefore, it would be convenient for the company to affect my job transfer beginning from the next financial year 2020.

I humbly request you to consider my personal reasons and accept my job transfer application. I am willing to give if any further information you need at your earliest convenience.

Thanking you,

Yours truly,
