December 2022 Payroll Update

December 16, 2022

Dear Reynolds School District Employees, 

This e-mail is to provide an update regarding a delay in December’s payroll for those staff who have opted for direct deposit. December’s payroll was originally expected to be directly deposited to staff early this morning, Friday, December 16, 2022, but will, unfortunately, be delayed for any employee who is currently enrolled in direct deposit. 

Financial Services anticipates that some staff members’ direct deposits could be made to employees' banks beginning at 5 p.m. today, Friday, December 16, while others may take 24-48 hours (1-2 business days) to become available. Please note that staff who have opted for mailed delivery of paychecks have not been affected by this delay. 

As a district, it is our number one priority to take care of employees. We understand that any delay in payroll can cause undue hardship, especially around the holidays. We deeply apologize for this delay. 

The District is able to provide short-term payroll advance checks to be picked up at the District Office today (Friday, December 16) from 3:00pm to 5:00pm or tomorrow (Saturday, December 17) from 10:00am to 1:00pm for any staff member requiring immediate financial relief due to the impact of this delay. To request a short-term payroll advance, please fill out the following form: https://www.reynolds.k12.or.us/fs/december-2022-payroll-advance-request   

PLEASE NOTE: To ensure a payroll advance is ready for pickup in a timely manner, the deadline to pickup an advance check today from 3:00-5:00pm is 1:30pm today (12/16). The deadline to pickup an advance check tomorrow from 10:00am-1:00pm is 9:00pm tonight (12/16). Also note that regular direct deposits are still processing through banks and this request would be in addition to your regular deposit. Please only request an advance on future paychecks if you are impacted by undue financial hardship due to the delay in direct deposit processing. 

If you have experienced any bank fee charges due to the delay in direct deposit, we will be providing a process for reimbursement upon verification. We will provide that information and process soon. 

If you have any further questions or concerns, please contact Mail_RSD_Payroll@rsd7.net.   

Sincerely, 

Reynolds School District
