Arizona paystub law

What Arizona law actually requires on a paystub.

Wage statement requirements

Arizona Revised Statutes § 23-352 requires employers to provide an itemized wage statement to each employee on payday. The statement must list hours worked, hourly rate (or salary), gross wages, itemized deductions, and net wages. Paydays must be at least semi-monthly with no more than 16 days between paydays for most workers. The Arizona Industrial Commission enforces wage payment violations; treble damages are available for non-payment in some circumstances.

Using a Arizona paystub for proof of income

Phoenix and Tucson rental markets are landlord-friendly and competitive — a clean paystub showing 3× monthly rent gross is the de-facto standard for most apartment applications. Healthcare employers in the Phoenix metro (Banner, HonorHealth) deliver electronic stubs through standard payroll vendors; tourism workers on the Grand Canyon corridor often deal with seasonal variability that requires multiple months of stubs to verify.
