DBRs, please share this information via your internal listserv.  Do not reply to this email.  Please
send a separate email with questions to benefits at ucr.edu<mailto:benefits at ucr.edu>.

Please note the implementation date has changed since the July 18 notice<https://ucofficeofthepresident.sharepoint.com/sites/UCPathLocationSupport/Lists/UCPC%20Announcements/DispForm.aspx?ID=1478>.

Beginning August 24, 2025, UCPath will add a new security step to protect against fraud.  Employees must enter an active bank account number to view or update direct deposit information in self-service.

Important Information:

  *   Employees will have three attempts to enter the correct account number. After three unsuccessful attempts, access to the direct deposit page is locked until the following day.
  *   Employees must have their bank account number available whenever reviewing or updating direct deposit information.

For more information on safeguarding your financial data, please refer to this article:
