Reminders from Payroll

POSTED NOVEMBER 2022

Our District’s offices and campuses will close during the week of November 21, 2022, through November 25, 2022, and for two weeks from December 19, 2022, through December 30, 2022. These closures impact the way that our District distributes paychecks to its employees. Checks that are normally distributed to employees at their campus or department will be mailed to the employee’s home address. Also, a change to an employee’s direct deposit selection may result in up to two paper checks being issued before the change in banking instructions can be processed. Be aware that recent changes to first-class mail by the United States Postal Service could delay the delivery of a mailed check.

The NEISD Payroll department has created a chart for employees to use to ensure that any changes an employee makes to their home address or direct deposit will occur with no disruption to the employee. If you need to make a change to your home address, or add, stop, or change the banking instructions for direct deposit, please use the chart on the following page to avoid any delay in receiving your pay during the upcoming closures.

All changes to the bank account you want your pay to be deposited into must be made prior to the deadline listed in the chart below for that pay date. All payments will be sent to the bank account that is active in Employee Center as of the deadline for that pay date. Accounts that are closed with your financial institution are not automatically removed from Employee Center. Please log into Employee Center to make any changes.

If you do not make your account change in Employee Center prior to the deadline and your funds are sent to the bank account previously listed in Employee Center, the Payroll department will issue you a replacement check. A replacement check cannot be issued until the direct deposit funds have been recovered from the bank; the bank may not release the funds back to the District if the account was overdrawn prior to the direct deposit. Replacement checks will not be processed during either of the holiday closures. Replacement checks will only be processed on the days listed in the chart.

Any changes to the bank that you have your pay deposited into may take up to two (2) payroll cycles to process, depending on the validation process with the bank. If you have stopped the direct deposit to an existing account, you may receive a paper check until the changes have been processed and confirmed by your bank.

Please contact the Payroll Department at 210-407-0437 if you have any questions about direct deposit. Please contact Human Resources at 210-407-0188 if you have questions about updating your address.
