Direct deposit makes getting your paycheck more secure and convenient than ever.

The current balance on your bank account is the total amount of money in the account. But that doesn't mean it's all available to spend. Some of the funds included in your current balance may be from deposits you made or checks you wrote that haven't cleared yet, in which case they're not available for you to use.
You can check your direct deposit status by logging in to your bank account's online portal via the company's website or mobile app and reviewing the recent activity section. You will find a detailed description of any deposits, withdrawals, payments, or purchases there.
Generally, a bank must make the first $225 from the deposit available—for either cash withdrawal or check writing purposes—at the start of the next business day after the banking day that the deposit is made. The rest of the deposit should generally be available on the second business day.
