Wisconsin paystub law

What Wisconsin law actually requires on a paystub.

Wage statement requirements

Wisconsin Statute § 103.457 requires every employer to provide each employee with a statement of deductions for each pay period. The Wisconsin Department of Workforce Development's Equal Rights Division enforces wage-payment violations. Paydays must be at least monthly; most employers run bi-weekly. Wisconsin has a graduated state income tax (top marginal around 7.65%) that appears on most stubs.

Using a Wisconsin paystub for proof of income

Milwaukee and Madison rental markets follow mainstream 3× rent verification, with Madison running tighter due to UW-Madison academic-year demand. Manufacturing employees at Harley-Davidson, Rockwell Automation, and Johnson Controls produce institutional paystubs all Wisconsin property managers recognize. Dairy industry workers and food processing employees at Land O'Lakes-affiliated processors typically have W-2 paystubs with standard deductions; smaller dairy farms often produce more variable pay records.
