Direct deposit provisions - Indiana
Indiana law considers direct deposit to be an acceptable method of wage payment and private-sector employers in Indiana may require employees to be paid by direct deposit.
Indiana has transitioned entirely to electronic payroll for state employees. All employees must establish direct deposit as a condition of employment. Employees who do not provide banking information for direct deposit will have their wages issued through a prepaid debit card.
