Pay stubs and W-2s or 1099s are the easiest way to show what you were earning before the crash. You’ll also want a note from your doctor confirming the injury actually kept you from working, and ideally a letter from your employer stating your role, pay rate, and the dates you missed. Insurers want documentation connecting the dots between injury, medical restriction, and missed income, not just a claim that you were out sick.
Building a simple timeline
A basic timeline works well here: date of the crash, dates treated, dates and duration of any work restriction, and when you returned. It turns a vague claim into something an adjuster can actually verify.
