What does FICA mean and why are Social Security taxes called FICA contributions?

Social Security payroll taxes are collected under the authority of the Federal Insurance Contributions Act (FICA).  The payroll taxes are sometimes even called "FICA taxes."  But what is FICA?  It is a separate law, apart from the Social Security Act?

In the original 1935 law, the benefit provisions were provided under Title II of the Social Security Act (which is why we sometimes call Social Security the "Title II" program).  The taxing provisions were under a separate title, Title VIII.  There is a valid reason for this, which pertains to the constitutionality of the law.  As part of the 1939 Amendments, the Title VIII taxing provision were taken out of the Social Security Act and placed under the Internal Revenue Code.  Since it wouldn't make any sense to call this new section of the Internal Revenue Code "Title VIII," it was renamed the "Federal Insurance Contributions Act."

I want direct deposit, how do I do this? And when will this become effective?
Go to my.tcu.edu, to employee self service, navigate to the payroll section. There you may enroll in direct deposit and/or edit your information at any time. Due to timing of your entering the information and payroll processing, it may take paychecks for the direct deposit and/or edited information to happen.

By enrolling into direct deposit, you are authorizing TCU to deposit your pay directly into your Checking/Savings account(s) and the depository named to credit your account. By electronically enrolling for TCU Direct Deposit, you have authorized TCU to initiate the necessary debit entries and adjustments if funds to which you are not entitled are deposited your account.
