i believe it is 26

Actually it depends on how often you are paid. If you are paid annually you get paid once per year, if you are paid semi-annually that means twice per year. Monthly you would be paid 12 times a year. Semi-monthly you would receive 24 checks per year. You would be paid 26 times a year if you are paid bi-weekly (which is every 2 weeks).

How many pay periods in one year if paid bi-weekly?

There are normally 26 pay periods per year when you get paid biweekly. Since you get paid every 14 days it is possible to have 27 (26 x 14 = 364) and a year has 365 or 366 days). This occurs every 11 or 12 years. Years are never shorter, so you will not have a 25 pay period year.
