Banking and Holidays

[TheoSqua]

I get paid electronically every other Friday. My account shows the money at 12:01 am on Friday. Electronic transactions showing up a few days late means your bank is putting a hold on the transaction prior (banks sometimes do this for companies that have bounced transactions), or your husband's employer isn't actually paying you on the 1st and 15th.

Could be a hold. Some banks put holds on deposits if they're over a certain amount. And the amount is surprisingly low -- a few thousand dollars.
