Independence Day holiday, July 4, 2023, falls at a critical time in the payroll processing cycle for PP 2023-14. To ensure T&A files are included and processed for PP 2023-14 as a result of the holiday, all pay groups are required to submit amended and current T&A files to the Interior Business Center (IBC) early. It is essential all timekeepers and data processing staff are advised of the importance of following the PP 2023-14 schedule detailed in this memo.
Please see the T&A submission deadlines below, for clients whose payroll normally calculates on Tuesday night and clients whose payroll normally calculates on Wednesday night.
