Convert a Paystub to Proof of Income (Step-by-Step)
Payroll portals rarely offer a clean proof of income PDF. With CourtPDF you can copy key paystub lines, add matching bank deposits, and produce a polished packet using the Proof of Income PDF Generator—all without uploading data to a server.
1. Export Paystub Lines
Download a paystub or copy the summary that lists pay period, employer, and net pay. Save it as a TXT file or paste the lines into a plain-text editor so the generator can read the key/value pairs.
2. Verify Net Pay Against Bank Deposits
Match each pay period to a deposit in your bank CSV. If you need help exporting, follow our guides for Venmo, PayPal, or Cash App to gather supplemental transactions.
3. Add Gig or Contract Totals
Many applicants pair W-2 paystubs with 1099 income. Export gig payouts from Uber, Lyft, DoorDash, Instacart, or Zelle and add those CSVs to the upload queue. The preview shows a source breakdown so reviewers can see how everything contributes.
4. Generate the Proof of Income PDF
- Open the Proof of Income PDF Generator.
- Drop in your paystub TXT, bank CSV, and gig payouts. Try the built-in samples to see how the workflow behaves.
- Preview totals, adjust filters by date or source, and enter your name for the cover page.
- Click Generate Proof of Income PDF to download a polished packet with a disclaimer footer.
5. Attach to Applications
Pair the PDF with your lease application, lender checklist, or gig platform appeal. Include supporting documents like a Venmo rent ledger or message transcripts from TextCourt when extra context is required.
