Questions

Common questions

What is an employment verification letter?

An employment verification letter is a written statement from an employer confirming that a person works there, their job title, start date, and compensation. Landlords may request one to confirm you have a steady income source.

What is an income verification letter?

An income verification letter documents how much a person earns, either from an employer or from self-employment. It typically includes compensation details and contact information for verification.

Can I use this template if I am self-employed?

Yes. Switch to the self-employed version inside the Income letter section. That version is signed by your accountant, CPA, or a business client rather than an employer.

Will a landlord definitely accept this letter?

Each landlord sets their own requirements. A letter you fill out yourself or have an employer sign can be useful, but the landlord may also call to verify the details. Requirements vary and no document guarantees approval.

What is the difference between this free template and a Settl verified letter?

This free template is a document your employer fills out and signs. A Settl letter is verified directly from your bank or payroll system by Settl, then delivered as a secure link the landlord can confirm online without calling anyone.
