Questions

Common questions

Can I use DoorDash or Uber income?

Yes. Gig and delivery deposits that land in your bank account can be verified through a read only Plaid connection. You do not need traditional pay stubs.

Do I need an SSN?

No. Letters use a government ID check with a live selfie and verified income or payroll data. There is no SSN and no credit check for letters.

Will my landlord see my bank transactions?

No. Account numbers and individual transactions are never shown. With the Income Letter your landlord sees verified summaries such as a rent ceiling, an income consistency rating, and cash reserves in months of rent. The Job Letter shows your employer and role from payroll.

Can I show my exact income?

You control what they see. By default the letter shows a verified rent ceiling. You can opt in to show your exact verified monthly income.

How fast is it?

Most people finish in minutes. Pay once, complete the ID check, connect your bank or payroll, and share your secure verification link.

What if my landlord wants a credit check?

Upgrade to the Settl Verified Passport ($99) to add credit, criminal, and eviction checks. You can upgrade later by paying the difference.

Is this a CPA letter?

No. This is a verified data report pulled from your bank or payroll and matched to your ID. It is not prepared or signed by a CPA or accountant.

Will my landlord accept this?

Each landlord sets their own requirements. You get verified data they can check online at settlhome.com/verify. This does not replace a guarantor or cosigner, and landlords are not required to accept any single document.
