statements, read.
Drop a borrower's Wells Fargo statements into DepositDesk and get eligible deposits, exclusions with reasons, NSF counts and qualifying income, in your browser. Nothing is uploaded.
(01) The layout
What DepositDesk looks for in Wells Fargo statements.
- Transactions are in one table with separate Deposits/Credits and Withdrawals/Debits columns, plus an ending daily balance, dated M/D.
- DepositDesk tells the columns apart by their position on the page, so a credit is never mistaken for a debit even when both columns hold numbers on the same row.
- The statement's Deposits/Credits total is checked against the lines found.
We test against synthetic statements built to match this layout, not real customer statements. If a Wells Fargo statement doesn't read cleanly, email [email protected] (no statement attached, just the layout issue) and we'll fix it.
(02) Getting the PDFs
Ask for the statement, not a printout.
Download each statement PDF from Wells Fargo online banking. A PDF with a text layer reads instantly; a scan or photo is read with OCR.
Bank statement programs generally want the most recent 12 or 24 consecutive months, every page.
(03) What gets flagged
Exclusions, with the reason recorded.
- Transfers between the borrower's own accounts (e.g. “Online transfer from savings”) are excluded by default. Processor payouts like Stripe, Square and Shopify are kept.
- Refunds, reversals, returns, chargebacks, loan proceeds and interest are flagged for exclusion; one tap overrides it.
- NSF and overdraft items are counted per month and checked against the lender's tolerance when you pick lender rules.
- Large deposits over your threshold (50% of the monthly average by default) are flagged to source.
(04) FAQ
Questions brokers ask.
Does DepositDesk read Wells Fargo bank statements?+
Yes. DepositDesk is tested against a Wells Fargo-style statement layout. It finds the deposit lines, checks them against the statement total, and flags transfers, refunds, NSFs and large deposits. Statements are read in your browser and never uploaded.
What if a statement is scanned?+
Scanned PDFs and phone photos are read with OCR in your browser. Check each figure against the statement; if a page can't be read, you can type that month's totals.
Can I use Wells Fargo personal and business statements?+
Yes. Choose Business or Personal in the tool. Business statements apply an expense factor and ownership; personal statements count eligible deposits, unless the lender's rules say otherwise.
