Notify Payroll Services at 817 272-5426 immediately upon determination of a lost or stolen payroll check.

Upon notification of a lost or stolen check, Payroll Services will issue a stop payment request at Chase Bank and research the payment. The stop payment must be requested ten days prior to issuing a duplicate check. If Payroll Services determines that the check has not been negotiated at the end of ten days, Payroll Services will issue a duplicate check. The entire reissuing process may take as long as two weeks.

If it is determined that the payroll check has been cashed, it is the responsibility of the employee to contact Chase Bank and file an Affidavit of Forgery. Payroll Services cannot be responsible for lost or stolen checks that have been negotiated.

Payroll Services encourages all employees to enroll in Direct Deposit to eliminate the occurrence of lost or stolen checks.
