A paystub records earnings, deductions and net pay for a specific pay period. Prepare an employee or contractor statement from actual compensation records, with the worker type clearly identified. Formz supports batches of 1–26 periods and Classic, Modern or Compact PDF layouts. ## Records to gather - Employer and worker legal names, addresses and worker type - Pay-period start and end dates, payment date, hours and actual earnings - Tax elections, applicable payroll location and deduction records - Prior year-to-date earnings, taxes and deductions for the same year ## Check before using your PDF - Reconcile each statement with the payroll ledger and payment record. A PDF does not establish that a payment occurred. - Check the selected calculation year, supported withholding coverage and YTD starting balances; exclude employer-paid taxes from employee deductions. ## After you prepare the document Retain the underlying payroll records and deliver statements through your normal authorized process. If you need a copy of a statement issued by an employer, request it from that employer or payroll portal. ## Common questions Can a self-employed person use an employee paystub? A sole proprietor should document actual business receipts and expenses rather than invent employer wages. A contractor statement can summarize recorded compensation, but a lender or other recipient decides which income documents it accepts. Which Paystub revision does Formz support? The current catalog lists 2025, 2026. Select an available year inside the editor where offered and compare that PDF with the reporting period you need. A supported historical revision is not a claim that it is suitable for a current-year obligation. Does the PDF confirm that payroll was paid? No. The PDF records supplied payroll information and supported calculations. Use actual payment and payroll records to verify the amounts. Formz does not transfer payroll funds or guarantee acceptance by a recipient. ## Related forms and guides [Paystub documents and payroll records](/categories/paystubs.md)[W-2 Form W-2 reports an employee’s annual wages and applicable tax withholding.](/forms/w2.md)[Form W-4 Form W-4 tells an employer how to handle an employee’s federal income-tax withholding elections.](/forms/w4.md)[1099-NEC Form 1099-NEC reports nonemployee compensation when the payment and payer meet the selected year’s reporting rules.](/forms/1099-nec.md)[How to read a pay stub](/guides/how-to-read-a-pay-stub.md)[How to get pay stubs from your employer](/guides/how-to-get-pay-stubs.md)[Self-employed proof of income: build a reliable record set](/guides/self-employed-proof-of-income.md)[W-2 vs. paystub: reconcile the right totals](/guides/w2-vs-paystub.md) ## Official sources Source links reviewed October 4, 2026.
