Where’s my check at UT?Workday, then Pay, then Payslips.
Log in to Workday, choose Pay, then Payslips to see your earnings. UT’s “Where’s My Check?” tool in UT Direct covers other university payments, and not payroll.
If payday has passed and nothing arrived, email [email protected] with your UT EID.
How do I enter a timesheet at UT?In Workday, in the My Time and Absence app.
Hourly-paid student workers must enter and submit time before they’re paid. Use the My Time and Absence app in Workday, then your supervisor approves it.
UT’s calendar sets 5 PM on the due date for time to be final approved. It also lists a 3 PM step that day that sends timesheets to timekeepers.
How do I set up direct deposit at UT?Two steps in Workday.
First, go to Personal Information, About Me, Personal, then Additional Data and complete the Direct Deposit Declaration. Then open Pay, Payment Elections, add your bank account, and set the payment type to Direct Deposit.
Without a payment election, UT pays by paper check you pick up at Payroll Services. Deposit times vary by bank, so ask your bank about timing.
When does UT pay?First business day, or twice a month.
Monthly positions are paid on the first business day of the month. Semi-monthly positions are paid about five business days after the pay period ends.
UT doesn’t say which group a student job is in. Ask your department or Payroll Services. The full calendar runs through Aug 2027.
What if I lose a paper check?Ask for a replacement a week after payday.
You can request a replacement one week after the payday. Fill out the Replacement Check Request Form at Payroll Services or send it in. UT usually finishes replacements in three to five business days.
Who do I contact in Payroll Services?[email protected] or 512-471-5271.
Email [email protected] or call 512-471-5271, and include your UT EID. The office is in Main Building, Room 4, open 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday to Friday.
For payment problems, email the payment team at [email protected]. For Spanish, write [email protected].
