SPRING 2010 PAYROLL AUTHORIZATIONS FOR NEW STUDENT WORKERS AND PT TEMPORARY EMPLOYEES

A new payroll authorization must be completed for all student and PT temporary “non-benefits eligible” employees who are newly hired.

STUDENT Payroll Authorizations: Should be done on-line as we recently began doing this past Spring. Use “sub”-Account “6307" for NON-WORK STUDY and “6309" for WORK STUDY ELIGIBLE students.

The payroll authorization should be filled out completely listing January 19th or thereafter (if the official hire date is later in the term) as the “Effective Date” of employment and must be submitted on or before work begins.

It should be noted that for new hires, pursuant to federal law and IIT Policy, the Payroll Authorization and other tax and I-9 forms must be submitted before anyone begins working.

Use 5/31/2010 as the employment end date if you want to hire students for the entire spring semester.

Please contact the Office of Administration & Finance, DTC 265, if you have questions.

(For faculty research assistant hiring, contact your faculty assistant or Vince Rivera for assistance).

Time entry is conducted through IIT's online time entry for all students and staff. Instructions for Web Time Entry can be found at: http://www.kentlaw.edu/students/student-timesheet-instructions.pdf.
Please print out this "Timekeeping Manual" for student workers so that you have it as a reference for each pay period you will need to enter time worked on-line.
