Frequently asked questions
Is the vida laboral used for a mortgage?
Yes. Banks usually request it alongside payslips and your tax return to assess how stable your income is before granting a mortgage.
Does it help calculate the pension?
It's a key document: it shows contribution days and registered periods, which are the basis for meeting the minimum contribution period and calculating the pension.
Does it count as proof of experience for public exams?
In many calls the vida laboral proves time worked, often together with an employer certificate or contract. Always check what each set of rules requires.
