Direct Deposit and Electronic Funds Transfer

Direct Deposit/Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) In an effort to expedite payment of all Department obligations and reduce check printing costs, the Department STRONGLY ENCOURAGES all vendors and funding recipients to enroll in Direct Deposit/Electronic Funds Transfer. Whether you are a new or long term vendor or funding recipient, this method of receiving your funds will significantly decrease the amount of time for you to receive funds due to you. In addition to a reduction in receipt time due to the elimination of mailing checks, electronic fund transfers with direct deposit are released each business day. However, checks are printed and mailed only twice weekly for those vendors not enrolled in the Direct Deposit/Electronic Funds Transfer program. The application and instructions for Direct Deposit/Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) can be found at the link indicated below. This form and all required documentation should be returned to the Office of Statewide Reporting and Accounting Policy (OSRAP) at the address below. We want you to receive your funds as quickly as possible. Please enroll today! Office of Statewide Reporting and Accounting Policy P.O.
