If you are working, once you are logged into ADP Lyric’s Homepage, you can go to the View My Timecard menu item.  

Important: For specific timecard issues – incorrect hours shown in timecard or hours worked outside of the scoring platform to be added to timecard – please Submit a request and choose the Time Entry Adjustments category.

Please refer to Chapter 2.6. for specific pay period and pay date information.  

MI employees are paid every two weeks. Weeks run from Sunday to Saturday.  We encourage all seasonal employees to set up direct deposit. It is the quickest way to get paid. If not receiving direct deposit, a live check will be mailed to you on each Friday pay date. Please allow at least 5-7 business days for receipt of your check. Check your address in your ADP Lyric account to be sure it is correct and complete no later than the Friday before your first pay date.

Once you have registered and have access to your ADP Lyric account, you will be able to review and update all your information, including W-4s, direct deposit information, legal name, address, etc. 

The table below provides our current pay schedule. It also shows the final date you can revise your account information in ADP Lyric if you want changes to be reflected on your next paycheck. Revisions can include legal name and address changes, other personal information, direct deposit information, and your federal and state tax withholding forms.  

Important: Deadlines for revisions to your information in ADP Lyric can vary around holidays in November and December, and occasionally for other holidays during the year, and will be determined by Payroll closer to that time. 

Pay Schedule:

MI has started using a new payroll system called ADP Lyric. The first official day in ADP was September 20, 2026.  

Regardless of whether you are a new or returning Rater, always check all the information in your account – name, address, W4s (withholding), and direct deposit – to be sure everything is accurate and up to date. Be sure to read all information on updating personal information, tax forms, and direct deposit in ADP Lyric and make any revisions by the Friday before the next pay date for those revisions to be active for your next paycheck. 

Important: Initially, federal and state withholding forms for new raters, and returning raters who have not worked in the past several years, are set up in ADP Lyric as Single with 0 deductions.  

Please only make changes that are necessary (legal name change, relocation, contact information, etc.) 

Use the steps given in Section 3.2 to access the Personal Information area in ADP Lyric, so you can update your name. 

A name change requires proof that this is your new legal name. If you will be using before/after DLs, or a marriage license, or a divorce decree, you can take a picture of them and send them to our Payroll department at payrollandbenefits@measinc.com. Request that they approve the name change in your ADP Lyric account, so it matches what is in your main profile and on your I-9 documentation. 

Important: If you are unable to update the information, or if you need to submit before/after SS cards for your name change documentation, Submit a request and choose the Payroll category and appropriate subcategory. We will provide you with a link to submit your documentation securely.

Be sure to enter your routing # and account # carefully.  

Important: ADP works with the GIACT account validation platform which has the ability to provide real-time account validation. You will receive a confirmation if your bank account has been validated upon entry.

Not all banks participate in this program. If that is the case, your account will go through a prenote process on your first payroll, meaning you will receive a paper check while this process is occurring. You will see a message about this after entering your account if it is not instantly validated.

Please make sure both your physical and mailing addresses are updated in the system in case you do get a paper check. The cutoff for an address change to take effect is the last day of the pay period. Any changes made after the last day of the pay period will not go into effect until the following payroll.

Checks are generally mailed on the Friday pay date from headquarters in Durham, NC, to the address given for you in ADP as of the Friday before the pay date. Please allow 5-7 business days for receipt.

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 2.6. in 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. 

If your banking information is entered incorrectly, the rejected deposit will be sent back to ADP Lyric and then returned to MI sometime during the next pay period. Re-issued wages are dispensed on the next pay date. When Payroll receives the funds back from ADP Lyric, the funds will be re-issued either as a direct deposit (if you have entered new and accurate banking information), or as a check that will be mailed to the address on file for you in ADP Lyric as of the Friday before the next pay date. Please be sure your address is correct in your ADP Lyric account. 

Tips:

Important: Incorrect address information generally results in a lost check. There are fees that ADP Lyric charges MI to re-issue a check. If the lost check is the result of not updating your address information, you may be charged part of the ADP Lyric fee. Re-issued funds are not re-issued until the following pay date. 

If you have waited at least 7 business days from the Friday pay date and still have no check, Payroll will need the following information:
