Use accurate records
Proof of income, when you need it
A clear pay statement can help organize current wage information for common verification requests. The landlord, lender, agency, or other recipient always decides which documents it accepts.
Rental applications
Prepare a readable record of a real pay period when a property manager asks for recent wage documentation.
Loan applications
Present employer, pay-date, gross-pay, deduction, and net-pay details clearly when a lender requests current income records.
Vehicle financing
Keep recent, accurate payroll information organized before asking a dealer or lender what evidence it requires.
StubProof does not verify employment or guarantee that a document will be accepted. Create records only from real payroll information; falsifying income documents may be fraud.
Up-front pricing
Pay for the document, not a surprise subscription.

Paystub generator questions
What to know about making and using an accurate payroll record.
Is a paystub proof of income?
A pay stub can be one form of proof of income because it shows wages for a specific pay period. Acceptance is not universal: a landlord, lender, agency, or other recipient may ask for additional records or require documents issued directly by an employer.
Are paystub generators legal?
A paystub generator is a lawful recordkeeping tool when it is used to document real payroll information. Creating or altering a pay stub to misrepresent employment or income may be fraud and violates the acceptable use policy for StubProof.
How many pay stubs do I need for an apartment?
Requirements vary by property manager. Many rental applications ask for two or three recent pay stubs, while others request a W-2, bank statements, or an employer letter. Ask the property manager which documents and date range it accepts.
Is my information secure?
The names, addresses, and wage details used to render your draft stay in browser-local storage. For a paid export, StubProof sends the server a salted document fingerprint rather than the payroll fields. Stripe handles payment details during checkout.
How do I make a pay stub?
Enter the employer and employee details, the pay-period dates, earnings, and deductions from real payroll records. Then review gross pay, taxes, deductions, and net pay in the live preview before downloading the final PDF.
Can I make my own pay stub?
You can create an accurate pay statement for lawful payroll recordkeeping. If you are an employee, an official pay stub normally comes from your employer or payroll provider, and a self-created record may not be accepted by the person requesting proof.
How do I get my pay stubs?
If you are an employee, start with your employer or payroll provider and check any payroll portal they use. If a copy is unavailable, ask what replacement records they can issue. A paystub generator should only rebuild a record from real payroll details and may not replace an employer-issued statement.
Can you use a W-2 for proof of income?
A W-2 can show employee wages and withholding for a completed tax year, so some organizations accept it as supporting evidence. It may not demonstrate current income as clearly as recent pay stubs. Confirm the recipient's requirements before submitting it.
How many pay stubs do you need to buy a car?
Auto-lender requirements vary. A lender may ask for one or more recent pay stubs, or use other evidence such as bank statements or a tax return. Ask the lender which pay periods and document types it requires before preparing anything.
Can I use a 1099 as proof of income?
A 1099 can support proof of nonemployee income received during a tax year. Because it does not always show current or recurring income, the recipient may also request tax returns, contracts, invoices, or bank statements.
