“Check Your Check”

January 30, 2026 by Deidre Mings

Review Your Personal Information and January Pay Statement

Please take a moment to review your personal information and January pay statement to ensure everything is accurate, including your benefit elections.

Key Areas to Check:

Personal Information: Name, addresses, and phone numbers
Benefits: Elections, wellness incentives, and flexible spending deductions
Payroll: Tax data, deductions, and direct deposit accounts

New benefits effective January 2026 should be reflected in your paycheck. If you notice any discrepancies, contact HRbenefits@missouristate.edu immediately.

The IRS recommends performing a “paycheck checkup” to ensure proper tax withholding. You can use the IRS Withholding Calculator for guidance.
