How does a landlord/apartment verify your income/employment?
I know that when looking for an apartment to live in (for the first time); most places will ask for paystub, W-2s, SSN, etc.
How exactly though does a place verify your income after you’ve provided a few paystubs?
Also, can an employer release what you’re being paid hourly or do they just confirm employment?
