Connecticut paystub law

What Connecticut law actually requires on a paystub.

Wage statement requirements

Connecticut General Statutes § 31-13a requires every employer to furnish a record of hours worked, gross earnings, itemized deductions, and net earnings to each employee with each wage payment. The Connecticut Department of Labor enforces wage payment laws; willful failure to pay wages is a Class D felony. Connecticut also enforces strict pay-transparency disclosure requirements (§ 31-40z) covering wage ranges in postings and during the application process, which is separate from but related to paystub requirements.

Using a Connecticut paystub for proof of income

Connecticut's high-cost rental markets (Fairfield County commuter towns like Stamford, Greenwich, Westport) routinely require gross income at 3× monthly rent or higher, plus a year of W-2s for stability. Finance and insurance workers in Hartford and Stamford receive standard institutional paystubs. Many landlords in Fairfield County use professional screening services (TransUnion SmartMove, RentSpree) that pull data systematically rather than just reviewing the stub manually.
