4.5. Adding or Updating Direct Deposit
You may use the link below and follow directions provided by Paycor to update your direct deposit information, but please take note of the information provided below the link.
If you make any changes, be sure to click on Save.
- There is no pre-authorization or waiting period for direct deposit. It’s effective immediately once Payroll approves the change.
- When you enter your routing number, the name of your bank should immediately pop up. If your bank does not pop up, doublecheck your routing number and enter it again.
- Even if your routing number is correct, you must enter the account number correctly for your wages to be directly deposited and to avoid a substantial delay in being paid for that work time.
Please note: Unfortunately, while the routing number is verified immediately, there is no way for Payroll to check individual account numbers for accuracy. This is why it is so important to enter the routing and account numbers correctly.
Additional Note: After you enter and save your banking information, you will see a message that says Pending Approval. Payroll has to approve changes to direct deposit information.
Please refer to Chapter 1.6. of this Knowledge Book for specific pay period and pay date information along with the dates by which revisions need to be made for them to be active for your next paycheck.
