Daily Updates with RF Rizwan Farrukh
Google has posted in the Google AdSense help forums that payments will be made later than normal this time, due to the timing of when the weekend falls out.
In the thread, Google also mentioned that instead of paying the money around the 22nd of March, it may be given by the 24th of March instead.
Google also explained to why and this is what they said:
“During most months, we typically begin starting normal monthly scheduled payments at roughly midnight GMT on the 22nd calendar day of each month. We send the instructions to our bank later that day. Due to this date falling on a weekend this month and to align with bank business days, we will begin initiating March regularly scheduled payments later this weekend for accounts with no payment holds and a balance exceeding the minimum payment brink. We expect our bank to receive and begin processing your payment instructions around mid-day (GMT) on Monday, 24 March. For EFT or wire transfer payments, the payment clearing processes in various locations may take three or more additional banking days before you receive the funds in your bank account.”
Google also said the payment is expected to be posted to the bank account before the end of March or even sooner.
