On average, SAG-AFTRA processes 90,000 to 100,000 residuals checks a week, intaking, scanning and remailing to members or their agents the vital funds that help sustain working and middle-class actors between gigs.
“Even with the increasing concerns about COVID-19 in Los Angeles, our staff has eagerly taken on the challenge of getting members and their families as many residuals checks as possible during this time,” said national executive director David White. “I could not be more proud of this team who, along with their colleagues around the country, are responding to member issues from coast to coast.
“With productions shut down across the country, these checks have now become actors’ primary and only source of income,” said a member of the processing staff in a statement provided by the union. “My job oftentimes seems small and uncomplicated in the grand scheme of things, but today I believe I’m doing maybe some of the most important work in this time of crisis.”
