How to View Your Earnings Statement (Paystub)

We encourage all employees to sign into the EBS Portal and review your check stub prior to contacting payroll with questions.

Go to www.ebs.msu.edu
Login with your MSU NetID, password and enter your two-factor authentication code.
Select “My Time and Payroll”
Click on the “Earning Statement” tile.
To view, Click on either icon at the end of the row.

How to read your Earning Statement

You can see the number of hours you are being paid for or the bi-weekly salary amount if you are a graduate student. At the top of the pay stub is the pay period which reflects the two-week period you are being paid for. At the bottom of the check, it reflects whether you are being paid by direct deposit (ACH), pay card or check.

You are paid two weeks in arrears, so please refer to the ‘Payroll Schedule’ on the Controller’s Website. If you are required to input time, it is imperative that your time is input and approved according to the schedules, otherwise, you will not be paid on time.

How to contact payroll

Payroll is continuing to service employees remotely, so the best method to contact us is via our main email. You may contact us at 517.355.5010, but we receive a considerable number of phone calls per day, and you will be directed to leave a message if all associates are servicing other employees. If you desire an in-person meeting, please call this number to schedule a meeting.

You may also send an email to our department at CTLR.payroll@ctlr.msu.edu

How are paychecks handled?

All physical pay checks are mailed to the address on file in EBS as discussed above. They cannot be mailed to your department, nor can you pick them up.
