The Thanksgiving holiday is being observed on Nov. 26, 2020 this year. Due to many employees and supervisors being on leave, employees should properly code and submit their timesheets. Supervisors should approve T&As as early as Thursday, Nov. 19, 2020, but no later than Tuesday, Nov. 24, 2020.

To avoid a delay in getting paid, employees must submit T&As on their last workday of the pay period and supervisors must approve T&As by the close of business (5 p.m. Central Time) on Tuesday.
