Check whether the statement still works as proof of address

The free tool checks whether the packaged statement still looks structurally usable. Uploading the statement itself goes further and reads every transaction.

Proof-of-address check

100/100

Address status
Visible

The address itself must remain clearly visible.

Attention points

  • The document looks structurally usable from these manual inputs.

From rough eligibility check to actual file handling

If the document is borderline, check the real file before you send it: upload the statement to see every transaction, the balance checked to the cent, and any signs of editing.

  • Every transaction from the real file
  • Category totals and repeat charges
  • Export to Excel or CSV

Fast enough for a first pass

Each tool does one job: a clean estimate, not a stand-in for a full statement analysis.

Built for document eligibility

Focuses on the core details that usually matter most: recency, name, address, and document context.

Good pre-send sanity check

Especially useful when the file has been cropped or redacted and you are not sure if it still works.

Strong operational handoff

Leads to a full analysis of the real file when you need more than a quick check.

Who it is for

This is a document-eligibility check, not a legal or compliance guarantee.

People submitting address documents

Useful when you want a quick sanity check before sending the statement to a landlord, bank, or service provider.

Users redacting statements

Helpful when you need privacy but do not want to hide so much that the document stops working.

Admin and ops review

Fast enough for checking whether a packaged statement is obviously weak as proof of address.

Anyone asked for a recent statement

Quick to run before an application deadline, when you want to know the document will be accepted the first time.

Proof of address checker: questions & answers

Can a bank statement be used as proof of address?

Often yes, if it is recent, clearly shows the name and address, and still looks like an official statement. Acceptance still depends on the receiving institution's own rules.

Can I redact a bank statement and still use it as proof of address?

Sometimes, but over-redaction can make the document unusable. The address, name, and document context usually still need to remain visible.

What does the full analysis add?

The checker looks at how the document is packaged. Uploading the statement itself shows every transaction, the balance checked to the cent, and whether the PDF shows signs of editing.
