WESTERN WASHINGTON UNIVERSITY
PROCEDURES FOR ELECTRONIC FUNDS TRANSFER (EFT) OF NET WAGES

Western Washington University offers to electronically transfer your net wages to your bank account each payday under the following conditions:
 1. This form must be completed and returned to Payroll Services (Administrative Ctr. B/Mailstop 5221). Enrollments will be processed on the first pay date available.
 2. The first pay period after you enroll in EFT, a CHECK will be generated with your earnings statement.  This allows time to verify that all the information, such as your account number, is accurate.
 3. The next pay period you are on EFT, your net paycheck amount will be electronically transferred into you bank account. (NOTE: financial institutions reflect EFT deposits in various ways on their monthly account statements)
 4. Earnings statements for FACULTY, STAFF AND ADMINISTRATORS will be distributed by your department on payday, Earnings statements for STUDENTS and TEMPORARY HOURLY EMPLOYEES will be distributed at the Plaza Cashier on payday.
 5. Any change in your bank account number or bank will result in the EFT process being stopped.  To restart the process, you must go through the procedure outlined in #1 above.  Once again, a CHECK will be generated the first pay period after re-application and restart.  Net wages will be electronically transferred the following pay periods.
 6. Failure to notify Payroll Services of any change you make to your bank account number will result in the bank refusing your funds and cancellation of EFT.  The university assumes no responsibility for processing supplemental payroll payments until the funds are returned to the university by your financial institution.
 7. In the event that the EFT submission deadline cannot be met due to a payroll failure, a manual check will be produced and you will be notified through your department prior to payday.
 8. It is the employee's responsibility to verify the pay amount on the earnings statement and to notify Payroll Services immediately of any error(s).
 9. Attach a voided check to the back of this form.
