The University of Miami has partnered with The Work Number® from Equifax, an independent service, to provide secure, automated employment and income verifications for current faculty, staff, and student employees.
UM employees can now provide The Work Number website (www.theworknumber.com) when applying for a loan, buying a car, leasing an apartment, or similar instances where proof of employment or income is needed. The service is available 24 hours a day, seven days per week, making it faster for University employees to have their income verified for credit rapidly and easily, even on weekends or during evening hours, often without the need to provide further cumbersome paper documentation such as pay stubs to lenders or other service providers.
