Paychecks

I have a question about my pay, who do I contact?

What is my vacation and personal leave balance?

  • Balances are maintained for non-exempt employees only. This information is provided on your pay stub. You can also contact your Department Time Keeping Coordinator (the person responsible for submitting time sheets) or Employee.Information.Services@Dartmouth.EDU

Where are checks mailed to?

  • As of June 1, 2009, a new College policy was implemented for mailing paychecks. For all employees who have a Hanover work location, paychecks will be mailed to the Hinman Box. To gain information on how to change the work location in the Staff Directory, please hit the the following link. To gain further insight how to handle paychecks in Hinman Mail, hit Paychecks in Hinman Mail.

When are checks and direct deposit stubs mailed?

  • Non-Exempt/Biweekly Staff - One day prior to payroll date, to be received on Friday payroll date.
  • Exempt/Monthly - One day prior to payroll date which is the first of each month. If the 1st is on a Saturday or Sunday payroll will be mailed out on Thursday to be received on Friday.
  • Non-Exempt/Biweekly Student - One day prior to payroll date, to be received on Friday payroll date.

If checks are mailed early due to a holiday, can I cash the check prior to the payroll date?

  • The check date will remain the same as the actual payroll date. Checks that are mailed early can not be cashed until the payroll date.

How do I get a replacement check if I lost my pay check?

  • To stop payment on a payroll check you will need to complete a stop payment form with the EIS/Payroll Office. A re-issued check will be issued after a stop payment is placed.

I lost my pay stub, can I get another copy?

  • You can request another copy of your pay stub from the EIS/EIS/EIS/Payroll Office. You must indicate the payroll date you are requesting. The EIS/Payroll Office can mail you the copy or you can pick it up at the office.

Why are some deductions not withheld from the third check of the month for Non-Exempt/Biweekly paid employees?

  • There are 26 pay periods each calendar year. Benefits and most voluntary deductions are divided over 24 pay periods, thus causing deductions not to be withheld on the third check of the month. This occurs twice each year. Supplemental Retirement Contributions are withheld from all 26 pay periods.

Can you explain the pay stub?
