What documents are needed to submit an application?

To apply for Rent Coverage, we need a copy of your government-issued photo ID like a driver's license, passport, or state ID.

To apply for Rent Coverage, we need one document from you:

  • A copy of your government-issued photo ID like a driver's license, passport, or state ID.

Other requirements for the application include:

  • Answering a short questionnaire (name, date of birth, contact information, apartment, rent amount, etc.).
  • Consent to run your credit. This is a "soft" check that won't impact your credit score.

In certain cases, we may need to see financial documents, proof of employment or school enrollment, and/or proof of citizenship/work authorization. When we review your application, we will determine whether these documents are needed, and we will reach out to you via email to request documents if needed by our team to make an approval decision.

Will providing additional documents affect my application’s approval?

In the vast majority of cases, providing additional documents, such as bank statements, employment verification or pay stubs, will not impact your application’s approval decision.


Our team will contact you directly if we determine that additional documentation is required for our review of your application. Please do not provide documents other than a government-issued photo ID unless requested by TheGuarantors.
