What Is Proof of Income?

When you are trying to bail someone out of jail, it is extremely important to have some sort of proof of income. When you get a bail bond, you are getting a loan of sorts. You will need to pay it off over a set period of time. This means that the company you are getting the bond from would like proof that you are currently making money.

By showing the bail bond company that you are indeed making consistent money, it shows that you can actually afford to bail your friend or family member out of jail. This helps instill confidence in the bail bond company that their client will be able to continue to make payments on the bond.

Here is a list of some different types of proof of income.

Paycheck Stub

Having one of these shows that you are currently working and receiving a paycheck on a regular basis.

Bank Statement

This can show that there is money moving in to and out of your account, showing that you have an income.

Recent Tax Papers

Having a recent W-2 Form shows that you are employed and have a steady source of income. This is also one of the ways you can show you have a good source of income if you are self-employed.

Business License with Bank Deposits

This shows that the deposits in the bank account are due to a business, which is a steady source of income.

Having any one of these available to show your bail agent will help the bail bond process. By having proof of income, you are proving to your bail agent that you can truly afford to bail your friend or family member out of jail.
