I've worked some work study jobs years ago during the 90s. No one who was there when I was there is still there. There apparently is no record of my working any of these work study jobs.
I did a graduate assistantship back in 2006. The professor who supervised me is gone. No one can vouch I was even there.
The only employment I've done that is verifiable is at Wal-mart, where I was fired. I wasn't fired for doing anything wrong. They just said that they didn't intend to keep me at the last one I worked. Wal-mart was okay with my work at the first one I was at until I was injured on the job and filed a worker's comp claim. Then management stayed hostile towards me. I haven't been employed since Wal-mart fired me on December 24, 2009.
I had various jobs that lasted two weeks or less where I was fired because of my health problems, which of course I don't list on any job application.
I have no way to verify any of my job experience from my work study jobs. I cannot even remember start and end dates for job applications. I have to guess.
No, never got one. But all of these were mostly in the 1990s anyway. They might not have done that back then. The GA was in 2006 and I have no references for it. I think I got something for that, but the people who could've vouched for what kind of a job I did or what I did are long gone.
I filled out an application last night and someone actually emailed me from the company only to tell me the application is incomplete. I rechecked and the only thing missing is a cover letter, which I don't know how to do in the first place. So, it's either that cover letter or they think I must be leaving off recent jobs. I did leave off Wal-mart since when they gave references I was thrown out of places and was told I need a lawyer to find out what they're telling people, but that was a temp job anyway, so doesn't matter too much. Places can't believe I haven't worked recently and I have got asked why and I just say no one offered me a job. Will figure out how to do a cover letter later and add it to the application just in case that's what it is. Was really something trying to figure out how to throw together the resume they asked for. Jobs I apply for never asked for one. Felt weird using a resume.

You aren't getting it. As the applicant, your only responsibility is to produce the name and dates of past employment when asked. That's all you can do. You bear no responsibility as to whether old managers and employees are still at the old employer. The info from the IRS will be proof enough.

Why are you so resistant?
Not resistant. Just having trouble remembering way back then. I don't remember exact dates of the employment anymore. And they don't remember me to clue me in. These applications want dates so I just guess.

You don't remember when you went to college or grad school? Is this a Friday joke? You can request like 10 years of W-2 data just in case. My work here is done. Good luck.
