When am I paid?
Bi-weekly employees, including student workers, are paid every other Friday. Monthly employees are paid on the last working day of each month. There are no exceptions to the pay dates. Please refer to the payroll calendar for specific pay dates.
Am I required to sign up for direct deposit?
Direct deposit is a condition of employment with the University System of Georgia unless you are a Federal Work Study student. If you are unable to obtain an account through an eligible financial institution, you may request an exemption form from Payroll.
Employees are encouraged to update direct deposit online via OneUSG Employee Service portal. The Payroll Office can assist with entering direct deposit information only if the employees provides a voided check or print out from the bank with both the routing and account numbers.
How do I update my tax withholdings?
Tax withholding elections can be made via the OneUSG Employee Self-Service portal on the tax tile. You may also consent to have your W-2 sent electronically, view prior W-2 information and print out a copy through the portal.
What should I do if I did not get paid or there’s a discrepancy with my paycheck?
Employees should, first, review his/her paycheck statement via OneUSG Employee Service portal on the Pay tile. Biweekly employees, including student workers, should also validate hours paid via the Time and absence tile > Payable Time Detail. After all information has been reviewed, the employee may contact a member of Payroll for additional assistance.
What should I do if I’ve confirmed I was paid but have not received my direct deposit or paper check?
For direct deposit, employees should review net pay distribution found on his/her paycheck statement.
For paper checks, employees should review and confirm the address via OneUSG Employee Self Service > Personal Details.
If a stop payment is necessary, please contact the Payroll Office.
If I’m a former employee, how do I access past paychecks, W-2s or other information?
If you are a former employee, please contact the Shared Services center at 1-877-251-2644.
