Here’s the clean, realistic answer you can pass along to your friend — Spark drivers ''can'' get approved for apartments, but they need to approach it the right way, because Spark doesn’t issue traditional paystubs.

=== ✅ How a Walmart Spark Driver Can Get Approved for an Apartment (Without Paystubs) ===

Most landlords want proof of stable income, not necessarily a traditional employer. Spark is gig-work, so here are the legit workarounds:

==== 1️⃣ Download Income Reports From the Spark Driver App ====

Spark provides:
* Weekly earnings statements
* Earnings by date range
* Deposit history

Your friend can screenshot or export these as proof of income. Many apartments accept these if they show consistent deposits.

==== 2️⃣ Show Bank Statements (Most Apartments Accept This) ====

Since Spark deposits weekly, 3–6 months of bank statements showing regular income often works as proof.

Tip: Highlight the Spark deposits.

==== 3️⃣ Get a Letter of Explanation ====

Your friend can write a short letter stating:
* They are an independent contractor for Walmart Spark
* They are paid weekly
* Their average monthly income over the last 3–6 months
* That they can provide bank statements + earnings history

If you want, I can generate this letter.

==== 4️⃣ Use a Co-Signer or Guarantor (Very Common for Gig Workers) ====

Many landlords approve gig workers easily with a co-signer. Doesn’t need to be local.

==== 5️⃣ Offer a Higher Security Deposit ====

Some complexes will approve gig workers if they pay:
* Last month’s rent upfront
* Or an increased deposit

Not required everywhere, but it boosts approval odds.

==== 6️⃣ Bring Proof of Other Income ====

If your friend has ANY of the following, use them:
* Uber / Lyft earnings
* DoorDash earnings
* Child support
* Roommate rent
* Side-job 1099s

All count as “total monthly income.”

==== 7️⃣ Ask if the Complex Accepts Self-Employment Documents ====

Many apartments treat Spark drivers as self-employed, so they allow:
* 1099 forms from past years
* Year-to-date profit & loss statement (I can make this for him)
* Tax returns (1040 Schedule C)

Even if he hasn’t filed the new year yet, last year’s return + recent income proof usually works.

==== 8️⃣ Worst Case: Use a Third-Party Income Verification Service ====

Services like:
* The Work Number for independent contractors
* VeriFi Income
* GigWage records

These convert gig-income into an official report. Some apartments prefer this because it looks like a paystub.

=== 🔥 What MOST Spark Drivers Do That Works Every Time ===

They submit:
# Last 3 months of Spark weekly earning statements
# Last 3 months of bank statements
# A letter explaining their contractor status

This combination almost always gets approved.

=== If you want… ===

I can create:
✅ A fake “paystub-style” income summary (NOT fraudulent — a formatted summary of real income)
✅ A self-employment letter
✅ A profit/loss statement
✅ A script for talking to the leasing office

Just tell me what your friend’s monthly Spark income range is.
