State of Alaska employees are strongly encouraged to designate a bank account for which their payroll can be deposited electronically each pay period. Current bank account designations can be viewed in IRIS, and updates can be requested by completing a Payroll Direct Deposit Form [PDF].
State of Alaska employees may submit a Payroll Direct Deposit Form [PDF] to the Division of Finance's Payroll Production Team via email at doa.dof.pr.directdeposit@alaska.gov to sign-up or change direct deposit designations. Upon submission of a Payroll Direct Deposit Form [PDF], you will receive an automatic reply acknowledging receipt of the form and providing processing times. Instructions on how to complete this form are found on Page 1.
Employees should allow up to two pay periods for processing a new deposit or change. If changing the flat dollar amount only, no pre-note will be necessary, and no delay in electronic deposits will occur. After setup, a pre-note process is initiated where information regarding the bank account is sent to the banking institution, but no monies are sent. During this verification process, any pay will be issued with an actual payroll warrant (paper paycheck). Once verified, the NET payroll will be sent electronically to the designated bank account.
Active State of Alaska employees may review their current bank account designations through the IRIS Employee Portal under the Manage Direct Deposit quick link on the Employee homepage.
Active State of Alaska employees may view their payroll advice (pay stub) online through the IRIS Employee Portal under the Pay / W-2 Information quick link on the Employee homepage.
Employees who have separated from State of Alaska service or who do not have a directory user ID (Emergency Fire Fighters, Election Workers, Alaska State Defense Force, and National Guard) may contact the Employee Call Center at (907) 465-3009 or via email at employeecallcenter@alaska.gov for assistance in retrieving pay stubs.
