need help newbie here. I submitted a show on the 13th of march and i haven't recieved my commission on it. Direct deposit is set up. Was wondering do I have to wait a month before I recieve my first check? Thanks a bunch!
 
Have you qualified yet? If not, then dd won't start yet.....you'll get a check instead. At least I believe that's correct!
 
Was direct deposit set up prior to submitting the show? If not, you'll have to wait until 4/8 to get paid. That's all I can think of.

DD was set up a week before I submitted my show.
 
Was there any problems with the show? It shipped and went through ok? If the show went through ok then you should have gotten a direct deposit check already. I would call HO and see what is up.
 
My director told me something about only getting paid once a month when I first started, but I can't remember if it aws the 8th or the 22nd that she said I would get paid-my best advice is to call HO and make sure everything is all set!

If you are not set up for direct deposit, then you will only be paid on the 8th - the 8th is when the checks will mail. There is also a $4 fee to be paid by paper check instead of direct deposit.

It used to be that you had to qualify before you could have direct deposit - but that is no longer the case - you can sign up for direct deposit now as soon as you have your consultant # and your debit card #.
 
I thought I got paid twice a month-but remembered my director saying that. Thanks for clarifying Becky!

You're welcome! It can be confusing - especially to those of us who were under the old rules. That is probably why your Director told you that.

It probably wasn't set up soon enough. Sometimes setting up the direct deposit takes 2-3 weeks. You'll probably get full payment on 4/8. I would call HO just to be sure, though.
 
I think I remember something about direct deposit taking until the end of the month to set up? But this was back in October, so I could be remembering incorrectly. I just know I was quite surprised by how long it took to set up... Especially because I signed up for it at the beginning of the month, and still had to wait until the end of the month for it to be set up... I also recommend calling HO - it's the only way to be sure of what is going on, so you can plan for when you will get that commission!
