Thursday, December 25, 2008 will be Christmas Day, a federal holiday. The offices of Vision Payroll will close Christmas Eve, December 24 at 2 pm and re-open Friday December 26. Most banks will also be closed in observance of the holiday. Payrolls dated December 25 will be paid December 24 unless a previous change in schedule has been submitted. Payroll changes and hours must be submitted before the processing deadline on December 22. For payrolls dated December 26, payroll changes and hours must be submitted before the processing deadline on December 23. For payrolls dated December 29, payroll changes and hours must be submitted before the processing deadline on December 23. Payrolls submitted after these processing deadlines will be pushed back until the next available processing day. Due to heavy USPS and UPS delivery requirements as well as limited bank hours and staffing, we strongly recommend submitting payrolls during this time as early as practicable. UPS does not ship ground deliveries received on December 24 until December 26 so we do not recommend submitting payrolls on that date. No changes are required for payrolls dated December 30. Contact Vision Payroll as soon as possible to make changes to or for questions on your processing schedule.
