Access and manage your employment and income data stored in The Work Number® database.

Helping to Power Life’s
Key Moments

If you’ve ever bought a house, applied for a job, or applied for government benefits — without having to take extra steps to help verify your income or employment — you likely benefited from automated digital verifications from a service like The Work Number. 

Without The Work Number, you would likely need to provide extra paperwork during the application process. With The Work Number, you typically don't have to call around or send out requests for documents. Instead, your data is available automatically to credentialed verifiers with a permissible purpose under the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA).

How Automated Verifications Work

You Submit an Application
A verification typically starts with you and an important life event. For example, you submit an application for a loan, job, or government benefits.
Your Application is Reviewed
The verifier may want to confirm your employment and, in some cases, your income. You would typically give them permission during the application process.
You Can Get a Quicker Decision
The verifier uses The Work Number database to verify your information, which can help them make quicker and more accurate decisions.
