ACH Payroll Rule Changes Effective June 22, 2026
Direct Deposit [PR, 13]
Beginning June 22, 2026, a new NACHA rule will apply to payroll‑related ACH transactions. ACH payments to any employee (W2 or 1099) for wages, salaries, or other employee compensation (including pre-tax deductions like payments to HSA accounts) must include “PAYROLL” in the Company Entry Description field. This update helps strengthen fraud prevention by making payroll transactions easier to identify across the ACH network.
The Direct Deposit program has been modified to comply with the new NACHA rule.
