Feds: Who is still awaiting backpay?

[Anonymous]

I haven't seen a peep of my money, nor have my coworkers. We work for a DOJ component. Who has received their money, and how did you get it —either as a lump sum or in separate deposits?

Nothing yet, also DOJ.

Nothing at FCC. I think we are due to be paid on Nov. 21; not sure if that will include all the back pay.

DH and I are dual feds at different Departments. We were both paid nearly everything on Friday the 14th (it actually hit bank account then). One of us is paid through Interior's system.

I think work might have only given me 50% for some pay period just to make sure they didn't overpay me (I got an email), but it doesn't appear that way.

OK I did the math. We each received 3 paychecks on Friday. Dh's were for his usual salary amount. Mine were each $400 short, which I think is so they don't overpay me. My work had us finalize our amended timesheets Monday the 17th, so they will sort out underpayments then.

We got the furlough backpay in one lump sum yesterday 11/17, and will receive the regular paycheck for the most recent pay period on Nov 21. HHS OpDiv. They were very proactive in updating us on the timelines.

HUD estimate is November 20-24

Nothing at IRS yet. Supposedly we should get it tomorrow. Better than the original nothing until 11/23 and not everything until 12/8 plan, I guess.

It’s *paid* not “payed.”

There was apparently a large online petition of patriotic federal workers that granted the Federal Government/the Trump Administration permission to keep all backpay and donate it to pro-US charitable causes. If you signed it, or your agency had a strong showing in the petition (>20%), your pay may have gone there.

My wife got her backpay deposited the Friday right after the gov reopened on Thursday. Intel community

DoD- no back pay yet. About 2/3 of my office have been paid at this point, the rest of us have not. At this rate I may get my normal paycheck Friday before I see a penny of the back pay. The LES for this pay period makes no sense. The whole thing is a mess.
