Paydays and pay schedules

Every second Friday or twice a month? That difference changes when your bills need to be covered. Find your paydays, spot a three-paycheque month and plan around your actual deposit dates.

Is biweekly pay the same as twice-monthly pay?

Biweekly means every 14 days, usually 26 paydays a year and sometimes 27. Twice-monthly means two scheduled dates each month, or 24 paydays a year. Neither tells you exactly when a holiday deposit will arrive.
