Thank you for reaching out to us regarding the initiation of the penny test for your employee via the direct deposit method, USA3.
Could you please clarify the reason for initiating this penny test and what you are aiming to achieve with this process? Are you verifying the accuracy of the employee's bank account details, setting up a new direct deposit payment, or addressing another specific concern?
If you intend to verify the accuracy of the bank account information, let's ensure that the provided bank details are correct by depositing a small amount (such as $0.01).
If the test is successful, it will be posted to your employee's bank account within 2-3 banking days after setting up your bank account in QuickBooks Online Payroll.
When setting up direct deposit for a new employee, the penny test is a safety step to make sure their bank account information is correct. Passing this test confirms the new direct deposit is active and ready for payroll.
Please share any additional details or questions you may have.
