How to Get Unemployment Pay Stubs

Print your unemployment pay stubs directly over the Internet.

If you're currently receiving unemployment benefits, you could find it frustrating to try and prove your income. For example, if you're trying to apply for an apartment, you'll need to show pay stubs, along with proof that these funds will continue coming in for a specified amount of time. Since unemployment benefits are all done through direct deposit, regular paper pay stubs are no longer issued to recipients. However, you can still prove your income by printing a history of all your received payments.
