We’ve identified a recurring issue in recent payroll reports, where former employees who receive comp time or contract payouts after termination are being marked as Not Eligible. Please ensure these employees remain marked as Eligible on your payroll reports.

Comp time and contract payouts issued after termination are considered pensionable wages and must be reported to MOSERS. When an employee is marked as Not Eligible, those wages are not reported to MOSERS, which prevents us from processing them correctly and may negatively affect the employee’s salary credit for retirement purposes.

• Keep these employees marked as Eligible on the payroll report.
• Use the Move Wages button to move the payout, along with any other pensionable wages, to the employee’s last active pay period.
• Once the wages have been moved, the error will clear, and you can proceed with your payroll report.

Reporting these wages accurately ensures employees receive proper salary credit toward their retirement.
