What's the cutoff time for approving payroll for direct deposit?

Submit your payroll by 5 pm PT at least two banking days before the pay date. Paychecks submitted after the cutoff time will be processed on the next banking day and paid two banking days after that.

For example, if your pay date is on Friday, submit payroll by 5 pm PT on Wednesday. If you pay your employee on Monday, submit payroll by 5 pm PT on the previous Thursday.
