Important Information
All Teen Leaders are paid on the same biweekly schedule (see below). Please also reference the payroll calendar you received in your welcome email for more detail.
Your pay is taxed. Your net pay is what you are actually paid after taxes. How much you are taxed is based on the information you filled out on your W-4.
Teen Leaders are ONLY paid for time worked (absences, arriving late, and/or leaving early will impact your pay).

Payment method
Teens have three options for payment method: paper check, direct deposit, or Skylight card.
Paper checks are mailed to the address put on your Teen Leader application. Checks typically take 5-7 business days to arrive. They could take up to 10 business days.
Direct deposit forms must be sent to payroll@readalliance.org. You should contact your bank for direct deposit forms. Those forms are not provided by payroll. We cannot accept direct deposit forms that list someone other than you as the account holder.
To sign up for Skylight cards, you must make an appointment through your Program Manager to visit the Read Alliance office at 160 Broadway, 8th Floor, East Building.
