How to Add or Update your Direct Deposit Information in MyHR

 

In emergency cases only, Payroll Services can assist you by adding/updating your Direct Deposit banking information. To complete this entry, we will require the following:

  • Complete the Direct Deposit Authorization Form (PAY-FRM-031) (PDF, 218 KB)
     
  • Download from your Financial Institution, a Direct Deposit authorization form or scan a copy of a void cheque.
     
  • Send an email to Payroll.services@queensu.ca requesting to have your banking added or updated, ensuring you have attached both documents.
     
  • Please note that if no banking information is entered, the first payment will be issued via cheque and mailed to your home address. Any subsequent cheques may be held in Financial Services until banking information has been entered into MyHR self-service.

Queen's Payroll Services will calculate how much income tax to deduct by referring to the total claim amount on your TD1 Federal and TD1ON Provincial Forms.

  • Complete both forms to ensure accurate tax deductions.  Submit completed forms to Payroll Services via email Payroll.services@queensu.ca or drop off between 8 am to 4pm Monday to Friday, to 355 King Street West, 3rd floor.

For CRA compliance, the name on your Pay Advice slip and Tax slip must be identical to your name on your SIN card or letter.  Please log onto your MyHR Self-Service account and verify your name in the system with your SIN card or SIN letter.

  • If the names are identical, no further action is required.
  • If the names are different, please contact Human Resources at hradmin@queensu.ca, requesting them to update your name. Please add your Employee ID number in the email.  To ensure Privacy, do not add your SIN number or attach a copy of your SIN card or letter to your email.
