I have accepted a job offer which requires verification of past employment.

They are asking for a pay stub or 1099 as proof of employment. I entered this situation as some extra money on the side and was to be a 1099 worker but never made enough money to justify filing. I was paid cash for my final month of employment January 2015. The total amount of payment for the year was under $600 so I did not file a return. The same hold true for 2014 where I did not receive more than $600, all in cash, and did not report as was not necessary.

The employer is willing to issue a 1099 and / or pay stub reflecting my time there to assist in the new job verification process but wants to know how to best accomplish this. What is the best way for us to move forward.
