2027 monthly payroll calendar

The last business day of every month in 2027, the payday for a monthly payroll, with the day to submit payroll.

Watch for Friday, June 18, Friday, December 24 and Friday, December 31: federal offices close, but the Federal Reserve is open, so they're normal paydays. Plenty of payroll calendars get this wrong; see the Saturday holiday rule.

How the dates are worked out

Direct deposits settle through the Federal Reserve's ACH network, which is closed on weekends and on Fed holidays. When a payday lands on one of those days, the usual practice is to pay on the previous business day so nobody is paid late. The "submit by" column is 2 banking days before payday, the common deadline for a standard ACH payroll file; check your provider's own cut-off.
