Documents a lender will ask for
Having these documents readily available will help ensure a smooth and efficient application process.

- Pay stubs to demonstrate your current income and employment status.
- Bank statements from the past two to three months to show your savings and cashflow.
- Tax returns and W-2 forms, as well as any other income documentation.

Here are the most common:
- Two years of personal and business tax returns, including all schedules and attachments
- Profit and loss statements to provide a snapshot of your business's financial health and help determine your ability to repay the loan.
- Several months of your business's bank statements to verify your income and expenses.
- 1099 forms if you receive income from contract work to verify your income.
