New Direct Deposit Validation Coming August 24th Due to an increase in fraudulent activity, especially on bank account data, UCPath Center is implementing additional measures to protect employee data beginning August 24, 2025. When employees want to view or update their self-service direct deposit information, they will need to provide one full active account number tied to their direct deposit.
- The system allows up to three attempts to enter an active account number correctly. After the third unsuccessful attempt, employees will need to try again the next day.
- This step is required to view or make changes to direct deposit information. This added layer of security is critical in helping safeguard employee financial information.
- Employees should have their bank account number ready anytime they plan to update or review their direct deposit information in UCPath.
