Questions about payment

Hey all. I'm going to a screening on Monday for a $4500 study, and this might be the first one I actually get to participate in. (I've screened before but was never able to participate in the study because of timing.) Anyway, once you complete the study, do the experienced lab rats know how PPD will pay you? Do they cut you a check as you leave the facility or do they mail it out to you and you have to wait two weeks? Thanks in advance.

For a study like that? You get one check when you check out, and another check in the mail later.

I really hope that's the case since that would make things a billion times easier. They did say that we'd be getting paid $3225 for the duration of our stay, plus a $1225 completion bonus and $50 for the follow up phone call 7 days later.
