Employment Verification

Employment Verification

Please note that if you have not been employed with UC since January 2019, you must contact the Records Management team for past employment verification.

Current employees (or those who departed UC after January 2019) should log in to UCPath and select "Income & Taxes" from the menu, then select "Verification of Employment." 

The Work Number

UCPath uses The Work Number to provide verification of employment for UC employees. A file is sent each night to Equifax/TWN with personal and salary information unless the employee opts-out (for information on how to opt-out please see the job aid below.)  

You will be directed to the following instructions under "How to Provide Proof of Your Employment and Income":

• Inform them that UC uses the The Work Number
• Provide them with the University of California Employer Code: 15975
• Provide them with your Social Security Number

Salary Key

In some instances, you may also need to create a "Salary Key" in order to complete income verification. If your employment verifier requests a salary key, please follow these steps:

1. Log in to The Work Number as an employee
2. Enter the following information:
   • UC Employer Code: 15975
   • User ID: Your Social Security Number
   • Personal PIN: Your birthday (MMDDYYYY)
3. Select the "Create a Salary Key" option
4. Provide your verifier the six-digit salary key
