Pay stub laws vary from state-to-state, but federal law does not actually require employers to provide employees with pay stubs. However, the Fair Labor Standards Act does require that employers keep accurate records about wages paid and hours worked. Therefore, when for applying for loans, your employer can provide verification of your income (other than an actual pay stub).
