Hospitals don’t vet spouses, and every horror story I’ve seen with travel nurse rentals has come from the non-nurse half of the household.Income can come from either, but verify it.Some landlords rely entirely on the nurse’s contract letter — and that’s fine if they’re the sole payer.But if the spouse is contributing or working remotely, verify their income the same way you normally would.Bottom line:Screen both adults.Base income approval on whoever is actually paying the rent.Use the nurse’s assignment letter as proof of stability, not as a free pass for the spouse.It keeps things fair, consistent, and avoids the “I wish I would’ve screened the partner” headache that way too many landlords talk about.
