Casual Employee Home Loan Document Checklist

Casual employee files need the same documents as permanent PAYG with the addition of tenure evidence and careful income calculation. Confirming the borrower meets the target lender minimum tenure requirement at the start saves wasted effort.

Documents to collect

1

Three or more recent payslips (covering at least 3 months)

Calculate average weekly earnings across all pay periods. Cross check against the YTD figure.

Tips

  • Check the lender minimum casual tenure requirement before collecting documents
  • Use the lender annualisation multiplier (commonly 48 weeks) rather than a generic figure
  • If the borrower has a history in the same industry across multiple employers, some lenders accept shorter tenure
