I forgot to enter my hours/submit my timesheet. What should I do?
If you are logging your hours in Justworks, you can always access past dates and enter completed shifts. However, if you log shifts after the timesheet due date has passed, you will have to wait until the next pay cycle to receive pay for those shifts.
If you are logging your hours in Paycor, please submit a list of shifts worked (including dates and hours worked) to your Program Associate. They will assist you with entering those hours.
When do I get paid?
You will receive your stipend on the Friday following your timecard due date. See the "Resources" page for this year's pay schedule.
When should I submit my timecard?
Timecards are due biweekly on Saturday at 11:59 pm Eastern Time via Justworks or Paycor. See the "Resources" page for this year's pay schedule.
Do I need to punch in/out?
No. We track hours and compensate based on the quantity of hours worked per pay period. Please do not log your time using Justworks open shifts or the Paycor punch clock. Any punches entered will be removed before final timecard approval.
How do I log my time in Paycor?
If you are an intern or fellow who resides or works in a U.S. territory, you will be onboarded with and log your working hours through Paycor.
Navigate to your timecard from "Me" in the upper menu or by clicking on "View my timecard" on the right side punch clock. Do not enter punches.
Make sure you are viewing your timecard in "Project Time Sheet" mode. Click on "+ New Allocation."
Enter your department and labor codes. Your department code should default to “29-MANO.”
Your typical workday code in the “MANO Internship” dropdown will begin with the acronym for your internship program, followed by a string of letters and numbers. Contact your program associate if you are unsure what your labor code is.
The other options include “HOLIDAY,” “SICK,” and “VACATION.” You may only use those codes if your contract includes paid federal holidays and/or paid time off.
All other drop-downs should default to “NA - NA.”
Enter the hours you worked, save, and “approve” your timecard.
What kind of I-9 documentation do I need?
Employees must provide documentation to their employers to show their identity and authorization to work. You may find a list of acceptable I-9 documents on the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services website: https://www.uscis.gov/i-9-central/form-i-9-acceptable-documents. As part of your onboarding, the Hispanic Access will request one (1) supporting document from LIST A. If you do not have a document from LIST A, you must provide two (2) supporting documents, one from LIST B and one from LIST C.
How does my Program Associate support me?
Your Program Associate will support you throughout your program by…
- Managing your payroll and stipends
- Managing internship/fellowship related expenses
- Supporting internship/fellowship related travel arrangement
- Ensuring a quality internship experience and advocating for an equitable and mutually beneficial work environment
- Liaising between the intern/fellow and their assigned agency as needed
- Developing and executing opportunities for peer-to-peer networking and career development
- Working with agency partners to ensure compliance with and delivery of hiring authority certification
What is the difference between my “Site Supervisor,” my “Mentor”, and my “Program Associate”?
Your “Site Supervisor” is a staff member at the agency you work with who is responsible for managing your projects and responsibilities during the length of your internship/fellowship.
Your “Mentor” (also referred to as “Career Advisor”) is a person within your agency who provides career guidance. This role may overlap with your Site Supervisor.
Your “Program Associate” is your main point of contact with Hispanic Access Foundation. Your assigned associate manages your compensation, internship/fellowship related expenses, and offers further career support and resources through the foundation. Your Program Associate will reach out to you at the beginning of your internship, introducing themselves as such.

I like seeing what I do benefit other people.

I spend time with my family. Both of my kids are active in multiple sports. I coach baseball for my son. I am a volunteer firefighter for my town. And I love to spend time outdoors kayaking, fishing, hunting, and camping.
Your favorite book and why?
My favorite book is the complete Sherlock Holmes Mysteries. I took this book out of the library when I was in high school and read the whole thing without a break. I keep a copy of it on my night stand and once a year will take a few days and re-read it.
Who is a person you find inspirational?
The biggest inspiration in my life is my Father. I learned hard work, honesty, loyalty, hunting, fishing, and to be respectful from him. He is also a Marine and the reason I chose that branch when I enlisted.
