Employment Verification FAQs
1. What is The Work Number?
Like i2Verify previously, The Work Number is a service organizations can use to verify employment and income information. As of May 12, 2023, the University of Washington uses The Work Number for employee verifications and PSLF forms.
3. What information can The Work Number provide?
The Work Number
can provide an employee’s:
- Current or most recent job title
- Dates of employment
- Base annual salary
- Employment status (Active/Inactive, Full/Part-Time, Perm/Temp)
The Work Number cannot provide an employee’s:
- Job information prior to June 15, 2013
- Job duties or reasons for separation
- Personal data, such as address
- Professional certifications
- Work schedule, attendance or timesheet information
- Amount of sick/vacation time off
- Wage/loss insurance forms
- Performance information
- Credentialing information (If seeking credentialing information, please contact the employee’s home department.)
7. How often is the employment information in The Work Number's system updated?
The information in The Work Number’s system is updated shortly after the close of every payroll cycle. In other words, changes to an employee’s status (e.g. timesheet approvals, retro payment, terminations) made in the course of any given pay cycle will appear in The Work Number’s system once that pay cycle closes. Refer to the Payroll and Workday Approval Deadline Calendar page for additional detail; the close of each payroll cycle is indicated on the calendar.
Additionally, if your “on leave” status recently changed, and you urgently need an employment verification reflecting your new status, please contact The Work Number directly (review FAQ #2, above, for contact information) to explain your situation and request a “Custom Verification Letter.” The Work Number will then work with the University of Washington to confirm all status/employment changes.
9. I understand that The Work Number can provide me with either an employment verification report or an employment verification letter. Which should I choose?
The choice you make is entirely dependent on the information you need. The differences between the contents of an employment verification report and an employment verification letter are summarized below.

12. Does The Work Number comply with the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA)?
Yes. The Work Number’s secure verification process meets the FCRA’s requirement of a permissible purpose1 for all employment verification requests. For income verification requests, verifiers must additionally certify to The Work Number that they have employee consent.2
1. “Permissible purpose” is an FCRA-compliant reason for requesting employment and/or income information. Common permissible purposes include: for the extension of credit, as part of an account review, for employment purposes, or when ordered by a court. A permissible purpose is required for each employment or income data request. 2. “Employee consent” is the employee’s authorization for access to their employment and/or income information. Employee consent can be in the form of an ink signature, an electronic signature or Permission Key for The Work Number. Verifiers must certify they have employee consent for each income verification request.
