# Payroll - Manual Bank Verification Process


### ${color}[#696969](Payroll Manual Bank Verification Process)

###### ${color}[#696969](Bank account verification is a crucial security step before processing payroll. While instant verification is available for many banks, some accounts require manual verification through micro-deposits.)

#### ${color}[#696969](Understanding Micro-Deposits)

${color}[#696969](Micro-deposits are small test transactions sent to verify bank account ownership. This verification is required before EasyTeam Payroll can process any withdrawals for payroll and tax payments.)

#### ${color}[#696969](When Is Verification Required?)

${color}[#696969](Bank verification occurs during the payroll onboarding process, immediately after entering bank account details.)

#### ${color}[#696969](How Verification Works)

${color}[#696969](The process involves three small transactions:)

* ${color}[#696969](Two small deposits under $1 each)

* ${color}[#696969](One withdrawal that removes the deposited amount)

${color}[#696969](These transactions typically appear in your account within 3 business days.)

#### ${color}[#696969](Completing Verification)

➡️ ${color}[#696969](Wait for the deposits to appear in your bank account.)

➡️ ${color}[#696969](Return to your employer onboarding dashboard.)

➡️ ${color}[#696969](Enter the exact amount of each deposit.)

| ${color}[#696969](Example: You received a deposit of $0.43 and $0.15 totaling $0.58 cent. Enter $0.43 in one box and $0.15 in the other and NOT the total deposit of $0.58.)

💡 ${color}[#696969](Once the amounts are correctly entered, your bank account will be verified automatically.)

#### ${color}[#696969](Alternative Verification Methods)

${color}[#696969](If you encounter issues with micro-deposits, you can verify your account by providing:)
* ${color}[#696969](A copy of your ID)
* ${color}[#696969](A voided check from the account)
