    Expert Answer
    Having good credit increases your chances of being approved. It's entirely up to the finance company or dealership whether to approve you for a car loan without proof of income. However, you'll be more likely to be approved if you have Tier 1 credit, or a 720+ score, and you submit your loan application with true and accurate information.
  • Question
    If a vehicle is a total loss, but I still owe the lien holder, will they roll over the amount due to a new loan contract or replacement vehicle?
    Community Answer
    It depends on your lender, but they probably will since it is in their best interest to do so to ensure that they get paid. Upside-down equity is also rolled into a new loan the same way.
  • Question
    I can't work due to a pending case for disability. I am getting support now for alimony for the next 10 months. Can I get approved for a loan?
    Community Answer
    This will depend on your credit score. You may use alimony as income if you wish, but if you fail to make payments, that will be listed as potential income to be garnished. Speak to your bank or credit union as they have their own policies for income requirements.
  • Question
    How do I create and print a paycheck pay stub?
    Community Answer
    You should receive them from your employer. It will be the part of your paycheck that is above the check portion with your tax information (if you are paid via check). If you are paid via direct deposit, your employer should have them made available to you every pay period.
  • Question
    Can someone with a lower credit score than me be a co-signer for proof of income?
    Community Answer
    The co-signer is mainly for credit score issues, not income. Some finance companies will approve the loan without proof of income if your credit score is high enough.
