Why four and not five?
Four weeks account for exactly 28 days, so every month is guaranteed four of each weekday. January 2030 runs 31 days, which leaves 3 days beyond four whole weeks, falling on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. Sunday is not among them, so the count stays at four.
When Sunday does get a fifth
2030 has 4 months with five Sundays: March, June, September, December. January 2030 is not one of them, so anyone paid weekly on a Sunday gets the usual four pay dates rather than a fifth.
Sundays in January across other years
The same month shifts forward a weekday each year, and two across a leap year, so the answer moves with it.
