Maryland paystub law

What Maryland law actually requires on a paystub.

Wage statement requirements

Maryland Labor and Employment § 3-504 requires employers to provide each employee with a statement of gross wages, deductions, and net pay with each wage payment. The statement must also include the rate, hours worked, and any piece-rate units. The Maryland Department of Labor enforces wage-payment violations. Paydays must be at least bi-weekly or semi-monthly. Maryland has a state income tax plus county piggyback income taxes — most stubs in Maryland show federal, state, and county lines.

Using a Maryland paystub for proof of income

The D.C. suburbs (Montgomery County, Rockville, Bethesda, Silver Spring) have rental markets tracking with Washington D.C. proper — 2.5–3× rent gross + 2 stubs minimum. Federal contractors in the I-270 biotech corridor (Frederick, Gaithersburg) and BWI area produce standardized stubs that landlords recognize immediately. NIH and FDA employees provide LES-equivalent federal paystubs. Baltimore proper has more rental-market variability with looser verification in many neighborhoods.
