How to Enroll, Update, Add, Delete, or View My Direct Deposit Accounts

Overview

Enrolling in direct deposit means you'll receive your pay faster and more securely, and you don't have to worry about updating your address when you move.  On payday, your pay is directly deposited into your bank account.

With UCPath, you can you can elect up to three (3) direct deposit accounts at different financial institutions.

Note: Although your information is saved in the system immediately, UCPath needs to verify your account with your banking institution before beginning direct deposit. Depending on the timing of your enrollment and pay cycle, you may receive a paper paycheck in the interim period while UCPath is verifying your account.

In UCPath, access the Direct Deposit page using one of the following paths:

Dashboard Navigation: Income and Taxes > Direct Deposit

Menu Navigation: Employee Actions > Income and Taxes > Direct Deposit

Additional Information:

How Often Can I Edit My Direct Deposit Information?

You can add/update your direct deposit information only once per day. This means you can click the Save button only once per day. Make all direct deposit changes, deletions, and additions before you click Save. UCPC Employee Service will need to be contacted if you enter incorrect information and wish to update the account in the same day.

Can I Direct Deposit Some of My Pay and Get the Rest In a Paper Paycheck?

You cannot enroll in both direct deposit and paper check options simultaneously.

Can I Deposit Money Into More Than One Account?

You can submit a maximum of three deposit accounts. Both dollars and percent may be used for direct deposit. When using percentages with more than one direct deposit and the sum adds up to 100%, the highest deposit order will be changed to a ‘balance’ deposit type. The ‘balance’ refers to the difference between the smallest deposit amount and 100%. (e.g. 40/60 split would equate to 40% in one deposit account and the 60% would equate to “balance” in the other deposit account).

What if I Don’t Want To Use Direct Deposit?

The use of direct deposit is highly encouraged because you will get your money on payday. Otherwise, a paper paycheck will be mailed to your address on file on payday from our bank in Arizona.
