Direct deposit
Direct deposit allows the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC) to deposit payments automatically into your bank account. It is a way to receive your payments without any postal delay. Not only will you receive your payments on time and be able to access them quickly, you can also be sure they will never be lost, stolen or damaged.
