Our Mission
UNC Asheville payroll is processed by the UNC System Office Payroll Shared Services Center. The mission of Payroll is to pay University employees in an accurate and timely manner, to ensure that payments are in compliance with all Federal and State regulations, and to provide a clear audit trail of all transactions.
What We Do
Payroll processes wage payments to university employees, and reconciles all earnings, taxes, deductions and benefits. Payroll audits and processes hourly employee time sheets, payroll requests, direct deposit information, employee tax withholding forms, garnishments, and various other deductions. Payroll initiates requests for payment to vendors of various employee deductions and benefits.
Monthly Payroll

NRA Tax Compliance
