Direct Deposit
Policies & Procedures
Employees can enroll for direct deposit via the on-line direct deposit feature
now available at the U@Penn portal http://medley.isc-seo.upenn.edu/penn_portal/u@penn.phps a quick and easy option that automatically deposits pay into a personal U.S. bank account every payday.
Allow for 2-3 weeks for new accounts or new banks to take effect. Employees who newly elect Direct Deposit or change their existing banking information will be paid via TotalPay® Card until their new Direct Deposit accounts become active.
The 2-3 week time period refers to the amount of time between the day you update your direct deposit through the day payroll is processed.
Employees should always stop Direct Deposit BEFORE closing an account at the bank!
| *NOTE:
Several of our employees now bank with Internet banks. It is imperative that all employees provide
proof (from the bank) of correct routing numbers and account numbers for the account to which
they want their paycheck deposited. The proof should be a voided blank check for deposit into a
checking account from the bank to which the funds will be transferred, or a pre-printed savings
account deposit slip from the correct bank, if the money is to be deposited into a savings account.
|
In these times when banks are merging branches on a regular basis; it is absolutely imperative that every
employee who participates in the direct deposit program open and examine their advices every pay period.
Please check to ensure the correct amount of money went to the correct account in the correct bank.
Please notify all employees in your ORG that they should check this every time they receive an advice.
