Virginia paystub law

What Virginia law actually requires on a paystub.

Wage statement requirements

Virginia Code § 40.1-29 requires employers to furnish each employee with a written statement showing the gross wages, deductions, and net wages for each pay period, along with the hours worked for non-exempt employees. The Virginia Department of Labor and Industry's Division of Labor and Employment Law enforces violations. Paydays must be at least bi-weekly or semi-monthly. Virginia has a graduated state income tax (top marginal around 5.75%).

Using a Virginia paystub for proof of income

Northern Virginia rental markets (Arlington, Alexandria, Fairfax) track with D.C. proper — landlords typically require 2.5–3× rent gross + 2 stubs + employment letter. Federal contractors in the I-95 / I-66 corridor (Booz Allen Hamilton, Northrop Grumman, Lockheed) produce standardized stubs that all NoVA property managers recognize. Hampton Roads area (Norfolk, Virginia Beach, Chesapeake) is anchored by Naval Station Norfolk and Newport News Shipbuilding — military LES paystubs and shipyard institutional stubs are widely recognized.
