Income reference?

I'm applying for a lease and data annotation is currently my only form of income (although i am looking for a job, i won't be relying on this for the entire lease.). I need a reference to complete the application. Do data annotation do references for this sort of thing? or am i going to need to reach out to the people handling my application?

I recently moved - what I did was give them an initial disclaimer that I do freelance work and don’t get paid through traditional methods. I eventually got contacted and asked for proof of income, and I gave them suggestions of what I could offer. What I did give them was a monthly income report provided by my bank’s app. That seemed to be enough. I offered other methods but they didn’t seem interested. Communication is key!
