The Work Number is an automated service that quickly and securely provides instant employment and income verifications when applying for a loan, buying a car, leasing an apartment, qualifying for public assistance, or similar instances.
Pennsylvania's State System of Higher Education securely transmits employment and income data to The Work Number on a regular cycle so the information remains current. The service is available 24 hours/day, 7 days/week. There is no more need to provide paper documentation, such as pay stubs, to lenders and other service providers.
