Letter of Employment

WHAT IS A LETTER OF EMPLOYMENT OR JOB LETTER? - Your letter of employment is written by your employer to verify your position within the company, start date, and income. It is on company letterhead, dated and has the contact information of the author who signs it. 

WHY DO LENDERS REQUIRE A JOB LETTER? - Lenders require your letter of employment to verify employment and have the contact information of your employer for verbal confirmation of your employment. 

HOW DO I GET MY LETTER OF EMPLOYMENT? - Letters of employment can be obtained through a simple request made to your employer, and must be recent (within the last 14 days). They generally will have a template on hand so it will take very little time to complete.  It is often the HR department that issues these if the employer is large enough to have this support.
