ST. LOUIS, Aug. 1  /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- TALX Corporation (NASDAQ:TALX) announced today that its automated income and employment verification service, The Work Number(R), is now available through Fannie Mae's Anti-fraud Tools as a documentation source in lieu of borrower provided documentation.
