Will you get an extra paycheck in January? Here's how to check
NEW YORK (PIX11) – You might be starting 2025 with a little extra money in your wallet.
Employees who are paid biweekly could receive three paychecks in January. If you expect to get paid on Jan. 3, then you should also receive paychecks on Jan. 17 and Jan. 31.
January won't be the only month next year that you'll get a bonus paycheck, either. You'll also get three paychecks in August – on Aug. 1, Aug. 15 and Aug. 29.
If you expect to get paid on Jan. 10, then you won't be getting three paychecks that month. The first month you should expect to receive a third check is May – May 2, May 16, and May 30.
Your paycheck might also be slightly larger next year, even if you don't get a raise.
