Employment Verification

VCU has contracted with a third party partner to provide automated employment and income verifications through the service The Work Number. This service may be used to verify employment for all full-time faculty, staff and part-time employees, including adjunct faculty, hourly and student workers. 

Anyone seeking to verify employment will need the company code and the employee's social security number.

• VCU's employer code is 19114.
• VCU Health's employer code is 18003.

Verifications of employment can be completed via The Work Number's online platform, or by phone at (800) 367-5690. Registration is required to proceed in both cases.

VCU Employees

To request your own verification of employment or a verification of income, visit The Work Number. This link allows VCU employees to login to The Work Number (TWN) via their VCU single sign-on ID through the Central Authentication Service.

• From the home screen, you can either:
• Prove Employment to Verifiers
• Prove Income to Verifiers

Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF)

Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF) forms should be sent to askhr@vcu.edu for completion. If possible, employees are asked to verify their employment for the PSLF on their own by using the employee verification steps listed above through The Work Number verification prior to sending it to VCU HR.

• Send Section 3 and 4 of the PSLF to askhr@vcu.edu for completion. It will then be signed off and returned as soon as possible.
• If you have changed your name since being employed at VCU, please include in the email the name you had when you were an active VCU employee.
• Please DO NOT include your SSN on the form when sending it to us via email. You can add it once you receive the signed copy back.
