Use a Bank Statement to Prove Income or Payments in Court
Bank records show the money trail that paystubs sometimes miss. With the Bank Statement PDF Generator you can upload a CSV or QFX, filter to the relevant months, and download a professional summary that stays on your device.
What judges and landlords look for
- Recent deposits that match your stated job, gig, or benefit income.
- Rent or support payments that prove a consistent history.
- Running balances that show you did not overdraw during the disputed period.
How to build a strong packet
- Export 2–3 months of activity from your bank. Include Cash App, PayPal, orVenmo if those apps handle your income.
- Drop the files into the Bank Statement PDF Generator and set the exact date range.
- Use the preview totals to note monthly income, total rent paid, and any missing deposits you may need to explain in court.
- Combine the PDF with a Proof of Income packet or aRent Ledger for additional context.
Tips before you file
- Highlight or bookmark the relevant transactions so a clerk can verify quickly.
- Print the PDF if your courthouse does not accept electronic exhibits.
- Add a short cover note listing the evidence: bank summary, paystubs, signed lease, and message transcripts if needed.
