Start planning now so that when the paychecks start rolling in again in the fall you are prepared:
• Payment Options – The deadline for requesting to be placed on the 26 paycheck option (balloon check) is June 30th. If you miss that deadline you will be on the 21 check option. You could still plan ahead for summer 2007 by setting up a vacation club at the credit union or other financial institution.
• DIRECT DEPOSIT – This option is available to all MTA members. Notify payroll of your desire to start this option and have your check directly deposited to your credit union or bank account. (Direct deposit is not available for the final check of the school year.)
• FIRST PAYROLL DATE - For teachers and full-time TA’s the first payroll will be September 13th. Part-time TA’s will receive their first check on September 27th.
• VOTE/COPE - The annual VOTE/COPE payroll deduction will occur on October 11th.
• MTA DUES – While the exact dues amount will not be established until mid-September, the 10 consecutive payroll deductions will commence on October 25th and end on February 28th. Cash-pay members must make full payment by October 31st.
• THREE PAYCHECK MONTH – January will be the month during next school year when you will receive 3 checks.
