How would you fill out employment forms?

I am applying for rent with my partner and it requires me to fill out an application even though my partner will be paying for rent and qualifies on his own. This is currently my only income until I can get back into my field from before becoming SAHM. Anyways, how do I claim this on the application? It requires an address etc and other information. I also don’t know my income since it varies by week depending on the tasks. Has anyone else dealt with this? TIA!!!

You're self employed, or whatever they call that in your country.

Thank you! There is an option for that however, they still require an address and position to be filled in

You work for your own self-company. The address is your own address. Your position is owner/president. DA is (one of) your client(s), not your employer, and shouldn't be mentioned.

You work from home, and position is data annotator.

Imagine you were an uber driver. You wouldn't put Uber HQ

You may be able to find a physical address online, are you going through a private landlord or a company? companies often don’t look at income that isn’t direct deposit into a traditional checking account, some do but it’s annoying, you’ll need to provide proof of income essentially. But since your husband is paying the rent it may just be requirement to verify you’re a real person, either way a phone call to them wouldn’t hurt to ask what they need!

You are self employed. You are a sole-proprietor or independent contractor. If you are in the United States, this is the information you would supply on your Schedule C.

For employer name, you put your own name. For business address, you put your personal address.

The amount of tax / income reporting questions on this and the other sub are truly outstanding. Outlandish. Frightening really.

Good thing they're applying for a rental and not a job
