○ If you do not see your routing number, try a different spelling of the bank name. (ie. J.P.
Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. vs JPMorgan Chase Bank)
○ NOTE: Do NOT settle for a routing number that differs from the one on your checks or
online service. If you do, your pay may be rejected and cause a long delay in you getting
paid. Keep checking the different spellings of the bank names. Some banks start with the
word “The”.
Unsure which is your account number, and
which is your routing number? Follow the
diagram on the right.
NOTE: If you are having trouble locating your
correct bank name and routing number
combination, please use the bank name
lookup sheet linked here
. If you continue to
have trouble, please reach out for support by
emailing
payroll@gmhec.org.
