The rules

Pay stub requirements in Virginia

Virginia 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.

Virginia expects employees to be paid at least biweekly or semi-monthly for hourly staff; monthly is allowed for salaried staff, so the pay period shown on the stub should match that cadence. When someone leaves, final wages are due next regular payday — which is why a final stub often has to be produced at short notice.

Deductions

What comes out of a Virginia paycheck

Every stub carries federal income tax withholding, Social Security, and Medicare, plus Virginia 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 Virginia payroll practice, not legal or tax advice. State rules change — check current Virginia guidance, or ask your accountant, before relying on it.
