Why does direct deposit take so long to set up?
One of the main reasons direct deposits take so long is that the banks are trying to ensure that the transfers are not fraudulent. Many financial institutions go by the “Three Days Good Funds Model” which says that deposits may be held up to three days to ensure that it is legitimate.
Why hasn’t my direct deposit hit yet?
You may have entered the wrong date when processing payroll. Verify the check date first. If the check date is incorrect and you use a payroll processing company, call your payroll processer for support. If caught early enough, it may be possible to adjust the check date and have true same-day processing.
