Texas paystub law

What Texas law actually requires on a paystub.

Wage statement requirements

Texas Labor Code § 61.018 requires employers to provide each employee with a written earnings statement covering each pay period that shows the rate of pay, total amount of wages paid, hours worked, deductions, and pay period dates. The Texas Workforce Commission enforces wage-payment violations. Paydays must be at least semi-monthly for most workers. Texas has no state income tax — most Texas stubs show only federal withholding + FICA + any voluntary deductions, producing one of the highest take-home ratios in the country.

Using a Texas paystub for proof of income

Houston, Dallas, and Austin rental markets follow mainstream 3× rent verification with stricter standards in tight downtown submarkets. Oil-and-gas workers (Permian Basin, Eagle Ford, Houston ship channel) have rotational pay schedules that produce predictable but compressed paystubs — Texas landlords are widely accustomed to interpreting them. Tech employees in Austin (Dell, Apple, Tesla) and Dallas (Texas Instruments, AT&T) produce standardized institutional paystubs. The lack of state income tax means net pay is significantly higher relative to gross than in nearby Louisiana or Oklahoma.
