How to get pay stubs from Verizon (step-by-step guide)

To get your pay stubs from Verizon, log in to the "About You" employee portal with your VZID and network password, then open the Pay section to view, download, or print your earnings statements.

Former employees use a separate site called Work History to pull old pay records and W-2s.

This guide walks you through both paths, plus what to do if you've lost access entirely.

How to Get Pay Stubs from Verizon (Step-by-Step Guide)

As a Verizon employee, you'll need your pay stubs to file taxes, apply for loans, rent an apartment, or just confirm you're being paid correctly. Verizon stores all of this inside its internal HR system, so once you know where to look, pulling a stub takes under a minute.

The process below works whether you're on a phone, tablet, or computer. If you've already left the company, skip to the former employee section further down.

Step 1: Log in to the Verizon Employee Portal

• Go to the Verizon employee portal, commonly known as "About You" (it runs on Workday for most roles).
• Enter your VZID (also called USWIN or "5+2", in a format like v12345) and your network password.
• Complete multi-factor authentication when prompted. This is now required on every login.
• If you don't have credentials yet, your manager or HR can issue them during onboarding.

Step 2: Access Your Pay Stubs

• From the dashboard, open the Pay or My Pay section under Employee Services.
• Select the pay period you want to view. Stubs are listed by date, most recent first.
• Click any entry to open the full earnings statement, including gross pay, taxes, deductions, and net pay.

Step 3: Download or Print Your Pay Stubs

• Use the download button to save the stub as a PDF.
• You can also print it directly or email a copy to yourself for backup.
• Keep at least the last 12 months of stubs saved locally. Portal access can be interrupted if your role changes.

What Information Do I Need to Get a Pay Stub from Verizon?

You need three things: your VZID (or USWIN), your network password, and access to your MFA method (usually a phone or authenticator app). If you've forgotten your VZID, use the "Find ID" option on the login screen or contact HR directly.

Why May You Need Pay Stubs from Verizon?

There are a few common reasons you'll want easy access to your stubs:

• To file your taxes accurately: Your pay stubs confirm year-to-date income, federal and state withholding, and pre-tax deductions, which all need to match your W-2.
• To apply for a loan or lease: Lenders and landlords typically ask for two to three recent stubs as proof of income.
• To monitor your earnings: Reviewing each stub helps you catch errors in hours, overtime, or benefit deductions before they snowball.

What to Do If You Don't Work at Verizon Anymore?

If you've left Verizon, your final paycheck is processed promptly under applicable state law, not held for a multi-week audit. If you were enrolled in direct deposit, your final pay goes to the same account, and direct deposit stays active for 60 days after separation.

How Do I Get My Old Pay Stubs or W2 Form from Verizon?

Former US-based employees use the Verizon Work History site. Go to workhistory.verizon.com, accept the terms, then enter your Windows User ID (your VZID or USWIN in all lowercase) and your last name exactly as it appeared in the employee directory.

You can also access income data through The Work Number at theworknumber.com, which is what most lenders pull from anyway. Here's a quick comparison of your options:

Can I Make My Own Pay Stubs at Home?

Yes. If you've lost portal access or need a stub fast for a personal record, you can use an online pay stub generator to create an accurate one in a few minutes. You can create your own pay stubs from real payroll data using tools designed for this purpose.

The key is accuracy. Your gross pay, deductions, taxes, and net pay all need to reflect what you actually earned. If you also need a year-end tax document for a side income or contract role, our W-2 form maker handles that the same way.

Do I Need Authorization If I Make My Own Pay Stubs Online?

No authorization is required to generate a pay stub for yourself online. Just make sure every figure is truthful and matches your actual income. Submitting falsified stubs to a lender, landlord, or government agency is fraud, regardless of where the document was created.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I look up my W-2 form and pay stubs for Verizon?

Current employees find both inside the About You portal under the Pay section. Former employees pull them from workhistory.verizon.com using their old VZID and last name.

Does Verizon have an app to check work schedules and payroll?

Yes. The Verizon employee app gives mobile access to scheduling and payroll, and the About You portal also works in any mobile browser.

How do I log in to the Verizon employee portal?

Open the About You login page, enter your VZID (or USWIN) and network password, then complete multi-factor authentication. First-time users may need to activate their account through SSO before logging in.

What if I can't remember my Verizon login password or ID?

Use the "Change/Reset Password" or "Find ID" links on the login screen. If neither works, contact Verizon HR or your IT support team to recover access.

How long do former employees keep portal access?

Direct deposit remains active for 60 days after separation. Work History access generally stays available afterward so you can still pull past stubs and W-2s, but if your credentials stop working, contact HR Answers.

How do I contact Verizon support for pay stub issues?

Email [email protected] for payroll and pay stub questions. For employment verification, former employees call 1-866-604-6572 and verifiers call 1-800-367-5690.
