I just signed up for direct deposit, when does it take effect?
If your request is received in the payroll office by the 13th, it will take two payroll cycles before the electronic fund transfer will take place. The first cycle is a test month called “Prenote”. During this time, all the information is tested for correctness. If the information submitted is correct, EFT will be in effect the following month.

I have direct deposit, when can I expect my check to be in my bank?
This all depends when your bank posts the deposit in your account. Some banks post the deposit the same day they receive the notice from the Federal Reserve Bank. Other banks post on the actual payday.

Checks are available at the payroll office from 8 a.m. to 12 p.m. EFT’s will be mailed the next work day.  Warrants are not mailed and need to be picked up.

I cannot pick up my check today; can I send someone to pick it up for me?
You will need to write an authorization note for that individual to be able to pick up your check. They will need to bring in their own picture ID at the time of pick up. If it’s a revolving check, the employee has to personally come in and sign for the revolving check.

I am resigning from the AESD; will my accumulated sick leave be paid out to me?
PERS and STRS regulations prohibit any district from paying out sick leave. However, this can be transferred over to your new district. Notify your new employer that you have sick days with Adelanto School District and they will send us a form to fill out and transfer your days.

How often can I change my Federal/State withholdings? 
You can change your withholding (Form W-4) anytime. Forms are available on the District Website and due to the payroll department on the 13^th of the month.
 

I recently changed my name/moved, who do I notify?

There is a form on the District Website that you need to fill out to update your information. Payroll does not have access to change your information. Personnel will need to make a copy of your social security card with your new name.  Make sure all the information that appears on your pay stub is accurate. That way wages are correctly reported to the Social Security Administration and W-2’s that are mailed out at the end of the year are promptly received by the
employee.

How can I get a copy of a previous warrant?
