Funds post immediately to the payee’s bank account. For payees with a direct deposit waiver on file, the dates for mailed checks also are listed.
Payees receiving direct deposit will be mailed an advice slip only in January, July and in any month in which there is a change to their net payment amount, financial institution account number or routing number.

Update Direct Deposit
To change the bank or the bank account where your monthly retirement allowance is deposited, you must complete and submit a Form 85: Direct Deposit Electronic - Funds Transfer Sign-Up.
You must complete Section I of the form and a representative of your financial institution must complete Section II.
It takes between 30 – 45 days to update your direct deposit information. Therefore, do not close out the bank account where your monthly retirement allowance was previously deposited until you see that the deposit is now being made to your current account.
