While everyone in the military knows that paydays are on the 1st and 15th of every month, the actual pay doesn't always land in your account on those dates because of weekends and holidays.
What many people are not aware of is the fact that if they have an account with Navy Federal Credit Union, their pay will be in their account before payday.
In fact, sometimes your pay will be in the bank Friday when the regular military payday is Monday.
These dates are for Navy Federal members who have Active Duty Checking accounts.
