Direct Bank Deposit: Indiana University policy mandates direct deposit for all employees. For each pay period, we produce a computer file containing a record for each participating faculty and staff member. The record identifies your net deposit amount, your financial institution and account number.

We deliver this computer tape to our financial institution which, in turn, enters it into the Automated Clearing House (ACH) system. There the deposits are sorted and electronically forwarded to your financial institution for credit directly to your account on payday.

New Employees: An email is sent directly to you telling you to pick up your paycheck at your campus payroll office. Please bring a picture ID with you and your banking information to sign up for direct deposit.

If you have entered your direct deposit information or given your information to your department payroll area, THANK YOU but you will still need to pick up the one paper paycheck (your first paycheck) if notified that it has already been issued.

Direct Deposit is mandatory for all employees of Indiana University. Indiana University automatically issues paycards to employees who have not signed up for direct deposit prior to their second paycheck. You must go to your campus payroll office to pick up the IU Paycard. Be prepared to present a picture ID.
