# Viewing Your Pay Statements

> Open any paycheck to see the full breakdown - earnings, deductions, taxes, net pay - and download it as a PDF.

When you have a payroll connection, MyTruv shows every recent pay statement with a full breakdown of what you earned and what was taken out before net pay hit your bank.

## Where to find your pay statements

The **Pay statements** list lives on the Income view - see [Income Overview](/income/income-overview) for the entry path on each platform.

Each row in the list shows:

* **Pay period** (e.g. "Jan 15 - Jan 29") or the pay date if no period dates are reported
* **Net pay** (large, bold)
* **Gross pay** as a secondary line below net
* A **Latest** badge on the most recent paycheck
* A small **download arrow** on rows where the payroll provider supplied a PDF

By default the list shows your most recent 12 paychecks.

## Opening a paycheck's breakdown

Use the **Last / Year to Date / Older paychecks** filter at the top of the Income breakdown card to scope what's shown:

* **Last** - the most recent single paycheck
* **Year to Date** - aggregated totals from January 1 of the current year through today
* **Older paychecks** - a dropdown of previous statements; pick any one to see its breakdown

## What's in a paycheck breakdown

Each pay statement typically includes:

* **Gross pay** - your total earnings before any deductions
* **Net pay** - what you actually take home
* **Pay period** - the dates covered by the paycheck
* **Earnings breakdown** - Regular, Overtime, Bonus, Commission, Other Pay (only categories your payroll provider reports)
* **Deductions** grouped into three buckets - see [Understanding Your Deductions](/income/understanding-deductions)
  * **Taxes** - federal, state, FICA, Medicare, Social Security, SDI/SUI
  * **Benefits** - retirement contributions (401(k), IRA, etc.), insurance premiums, HSA
  * **Other deductions** - anything that doesn't fit the other two buckets

## Downloading a pay stub as PDF

When your payroll provider supplies the original pay-stub PDF, you can download it straight from the **Pay statements** list. Look for the **download arrow** at the end of any row - tapping or clicking it opens the PDF where you can save or share it.

If a row doesn't show a download arrow, your provider didn't supply a PDF for that paycheck. The breakdown is still available in MyTruv - just not the original document.

## When you don't see pay statements

If the Pay statements list is empty or missing entirely, one of these is usually the reason:

* **No payroll connection** - bank-detected income doesn't include pay statements. Connect payroll to unlock them; see [Connecting Your Payroll](/accounts/connecting-payroll).
* **Provider not supported for detailed payroll data** - some payroll connections share employment info but not paystub-level detail. MyTruv will still show deposits in Transactions.

<Tip>Compare paychecks over time using the **Last** filter and stepping through older paychecks - changes in deductions, taxes, or take-home are easier to spot side by side.</Tip>
