The rules

Pay stub requirements in Arizona

Arizona requires employers to give employees a written or electronic statement of earnings for each pay period, itemizing gross pay, every deduction taken, and the net amount. The format is left to the employer, so a clearly itemized PDF satisfies the requirement as readily as a printed slip.

Arizona expects employees to be paid at least twice a month, paydays no more than 16 days apart, so the pay period shown on the stub should match that cadence. When someone leaves, final wages are due within seven working days or the next payday, whichever comes first, if discharged — which is why a final stub often has to be produced at short notice.

Deductions

What comes out of an Arizona paycheck

Every stub carries federal income tax withholding, Social Security, and Medicare, plus Arizona state income tax. Beyond that, anything you add yourself — health insurance, retirement contributions, garnishments — appears as its own itemized line.

This is general information about Arizona payroll practice, not legal or tax advice. State rules change — check current Arizona guidance, or ask your accountant, before relying on it.
