The rules
Pay stub requirements in Texas
Texas requires employers to give employees an itemized statement of earnings for every pay period, and the statement must be one the employee can both access and print. An electronic stub is fine on its own terms, but only if the employee can produce a paper copy from it without asking for help.
Texas expects employees to be paid at least twice a month for non-exempt staff; monthly for exempt staff, so the pay period shown on the stub should match that cadence. When someone leaves, final wages are due within six days of discharge; next payday if quitting — which is why a final stub often has to be produced at short notice.
Deductions
What comes out of a Texas paycheck
Every stub carries federal income tax withholding, Social Security, and Medicare. Texas withholds no state income tax on wages. Beyond that, anything you add yourself — health insurance, retirement contributions, garnishments — appears as its own itemized line.
