Your First Paycheck
Because paychecks are disbursed two weeks after the end of a pay period, your first paycheck will be disbursed four weeks after you begin your assistantship. However, If there was a delay in processing your assistantship paperwork for payroll, it's possible that your first paycheck will be disbursed more than four weeks after you begin your assistantship.
Example: If you begin your assistantship appointment during the pay period that begins August 9th and ends on August 22nd, you will receive your first paycheck on September 4th.
Payroll Taxes
The video below explains when student employees are exempt from payroll taxes based on your citizenship status and based on the number of hours you are enrolled.
