FAQ
Pay stub generator questions
Is this pay stub generator free and does it add a watermark?
Completely free. No signup required, no watermark, no hidden fees. You can generate and print unlimited pay stubs at no cost. The only text on the generated stub is a small disclaimer that it was generated by FreePayrollCalc.com.
Are the tax calculations accurate?
Federal and state withholding is calculated using 2026 IRS rates and each state's current tax rates. The annualized withholding method is used (same as IRS Publication 15-T). Results are estimates — exact withholding depends on additional W-4 elections, local taxes, and other factors. For payroll you're legally filing, verify amounts with a payroll professional or CPA.
Can I use this pay stub as proof of income?
Many landlords and lenders accept computer-generated pay stubs as proof of income documentation. However, some may require official paystubs from your employer or payroll software. Self-generated pay stubs are not official payroll records. Check with the specific party requesting proof of income about what they will accept.
