PLEASE NOTE: Direct Deposits for Travel & Expenses will only apply to regular, monthly/biweekly employees (which include graduate assistants). Regular, undergrad students do not qualify - they will continue to receive paper checks. |
|
If your paycheck is currently direct deposited into your bank account, then
any reimbursements you receive for University travel or expenses will also be
deposited directly into your desired bank account. This new process is
available to regular, monthly/biweekly paid employees (non-students) and should
be more convenient for you. Funds will be
immediately available in your bank account the day following each check
run (which is currently twice a week) and you will be able to check
the status of reimbursement requests online through MaineStreet Portal >
Employee Self-Service. Cash advances will still remain in cash/paper check form.
The initial setup for direct deposit of reimbursements will use your payroll
deposit bank account information with the highest order priority. However,
like payroll, you are able to change the bank information at any time by
logging into MaineStreet Portal > Employee Self-Service > Travel and Expense
Direct Deposit.
If you receive a paper paycheck, you will continue to receive paper checks for your travel and expense reimbursements. If you would like to initiate your future reimbursements to be direct deposited into your bank account, you may do so by simply adding your banking information into MaineStreet Portal > Employee Self-Service. Bank account data for Travel and Expense payments and Payroll is maintained independently. Changes to the Travel and Expense bank account will not impact your Payroll Account and vice versa.
REVIEWING EXPENSE HISTORY AND PAYMENT STATUS
The payment status of your submitted Travel and Expense reimbursement can be reviewed online through MaineStreet Portal > Employee Self-Service. Please take an opportunity to review the Quick Reference Guides shown above to become more familiar with this new process.
Remember, this is a convenient service that saves time and money !!
