FAQs
Q: When Will My Direct Deposit Changes Take Effect?
Your changes are saved right away, but timing matters! Here’s what you need to know:
- Changes typically apply to your next paycheck
- BUT: Your new bank info must be entered before payroll processing begins
- Important: Once payroll starts running, it’s too late for that pay period
đź’ˇ Pro Tip: Check with your employer about their specific payroll run schedule to plan your changes accordingly. This way, you’ll know exactly when your updates will kick in!
Q: I don’t see any direct deposit options, why not?
- Your employer might not have activated direct deposit yet
- The system only shows direct deposit settings once your company has completed its setup
Simply check with your employer who will be able to tell you when direct deposit will be available.
