Tip

Paychecks are sent to the bank once a month on the 15th of every month (or the last business day before it if the 15th falls on the weekend). You may see it deposited in the bank account prior to that date (and you will see an email come from Reliant saying it was deposited many days before the 15th), but the funds are not typically released until the 15th although some banks do allow you to access the funds early once it appears in your account. Every bank is different on the timing. Currently, backpay is paid on a separate paycheck that comes in an email a few days after the original paycheck email, but both are still paid on the 15th. Toolbox balances will be updated by the end of the day on the pay date for each month. 

How to View

You will receive an email with your paystub sent to your Reliant email. The paystub will be sent a few days before the funds are actually available at the bank.Historical (Feb 2023 and before) pay stubs can still be viewed on Staffnet by navigating to the Pay Stubs tab and clicking on the link to the pay date. You can print pay stubs by selecting "Printer-Friendly Version" and printing your computer screen. Reliant does not delete previous pay stubs, so employees have access to all their pay stubs at any time.

Understanding Your Pay Stub

Info

A pay stub shows all the amounts used to calculate how much is deposited into your bank account on payday. See below for a guide to the types of expenses used. This list is not exhaustive.

Your pay stub may have the following listed:

Employee Name - Check Date - Check Number
EarningsGross to Net Pay


Info

Advance Repayments are the amount being repaid for the Advance received. In most cases, it is the full amount but may sometimes be a prorated amount divided over several months.


Info

What is Reimbursement Draw? This will equal the value of something you received that was taxable but was not given to you in the form of a payment on your paycheck. For example, a gift card for reaching 20-year tenure, international counseling, etc.  

This is listed in this section of the paystub because it is an expense, but it is not included in the Gross Pay amount.

 Other Information
Net Pay Distribution
Info

What is Employment Insurance? Employment Insurance is required for every employee, regardless of the number of hours they are working. It is a percentage of the accepted salary that goes towards Reliant employer insurances. Employment Insurance begins on the first paycheck, even if the first paycheck is just a start-up/hiring bonus. 



  • This lists the bank account type (checking, savings, etc.) submitted in your Direct Deposit form along with the last four digits of the account and the amount of the paycheck distributed to each account.


Info

All payments for the employee follow the net pay distribution assigned. If the employee has chosen on their net pay distribution for the first xx of dollars to go to savings and then the rest to checking, it will follow those same rules for all payments including reimbursements. 


Reliant Address

At the bottom of the paystub are the words VOID VOID VOID. This represents that the check was not printed (the printing was voided- did not occur), and it was deposited electronically instead. It's the way the system tells itself it was a direct deposit and not a printed check.

Your address is listed as a way to verify that we have the correct address on file. If your address is incorrect, please refer to these pages based on your ministry assignment location:

Your gross pay is larger than usual. Increases in gross pay can be because of: 

  • A large taxable reimbursementERB
  • Back pay paid 
  • A bonus

Your Payroll Options

Request an Optional Payroll Bonus for Taxable Reimbursement Expenses

  • Designed to help offset taxes you're paying on the paycheck due to the reimbursement, in hopes of making your paycheck closer to the "normal" amount you receive  
  • The optional 25% bonus is added to your paycheck. (It's not paid to you when the reimbursement is paid.)
  • It helps with taxes, but the bonus is also taxed. 
  • The bonus comes from the MTD account you are responsible for.
  • When completing your reimbursement form, you will be asked if you would like to receive the taxable reimbursement bonus.

Request fewer taxes withheld one-time.

If you expect a large paycheck, you can request that fewer taxes be withheld by emailing payroll@reliant.org.

In the case that an employee wants to make a one-time Federal tax change to a certain paycheck (without making a permanent change to their federal withholdings), the employee may send an email to payroll@reliant.org before 16th day of any given month in order to affect the following month's paycheck. The email should be from the employee's @reliant.org email account and must clearly state how much money the employee would like withheld for the specific pay date. 

For example, an employee could send an email stating "From my XX/XX/XXXX (Month/Day/Year) paycheck, please withhold $X (specify the dollar amount) in Federal taxes".

See Tax Info & Forms (Link to Federal W4) for more information.
