The payroll calendar details exact pay dates. Note that December is the only month in which payments are deposited prior to month end.
Part-time payroll is paid in arrears, meaning time worked in one month will be paid on the scheduled payday of the following month.
Employees may choose to have payroll divided into multiple banks/accounts. Any changes to federal or state tax withholdings or direct deposit information must be submitted to the payroll office by the 5th in order for it be effective that month.
