SALARY WARRANTS - RETURN OF SALARY WARRANTS - 8580.3

Agencies/departments will not verify the computations of gross and net pay made by the State Controller’s Office (SCO). However, agencies/departments must withhold and return to the SCO, Administration and Disbursements Division, warrants that result in overpayments because of incorrect documents submitted.

Warrants for less than the amount due should be given to the employees so that they may receive partial payment pending receipt of supplemental warrants.

The handling of overpayments and underpayments should be done in accordance with bargaining unit agreements. Refer to the California Department of Human Resources for bargaining unit agreements.
