    'Kids and Mom' is the name of the place I used to work. I can’t I am unable to submit a Certificate of Income Amount because it was a kind of small business to sign up for 4 insurances and the pay was not that much quite low. And I also can’t submit a Bank Statement because I was paid in cash. so lease understand that I can submit a Certificate of Work Experience only.

    Please see my amendments above. My corrections are marked in red. I have also underlined "to sign up for 4 insurances". I don't know what you mean. Do you mean that you or the company should have had 4 different insurance policies but you decided not to sign up to them because it was a small company and you didn't earn very much?

    You need to concentrate on your use of articles and the placement of punctuation. Do not put a space before a comma or a full stop. Always put a space after them.

    I can’t submit a Certificate of Income Amount because it was kind of too small a business to sign up for pay for four insurance policies and the pay was not that much quite low.


    ​I have made a further amendment based on your response. However, I'm still not quite sure why the lack of insurance policies means you can't submit a Certificate of Income Amount.

    If I got a job, I and the company should sign up for 4 insurances.
    It means the company have a duty to report about the Income of thier employee.
    So there isn't any record or Information that I could submit it.

    It sounds to me as if you are admitting that either you or the company failed to comply with a legal requirement. Are you sure you should be doing that? In fact, are you sure you should be admitting that even on this forum?

    Here's a useful phrase:

    under the table - Idioms - by the Free Dictionary, Thesaurus and Encyclopedia.

    You were being paid under the table.
