Dear University Employees,
In our continued effort to streamline processes, provide more convenience to employees, and increase efficiencies, we plan to start generating electronic W-2 tax forms as of calendar year 2010. This new process will allow you to view and print your W-2 forms instead of having to wait for the mailed version. For the year 2010 and after, you will be able to view your current and future W-2 information via WhitNet.
To start the new electronic process, please log into your WhitNet account and click on the
W-2 Electronic Consent option under Employee Profile. By consenting to receive your
W-2 electronically, you will not receive your 2010 form in the mail. We will notify you in January when year-end processing is complete and your form is securely posted to your WhitNet account. Alternatively, by choosing to not give your consent, you will receive your 2010 W-2 via mail, postmarked no later than Jan. 31, 2011. You have the option to change your consent status at anytime, other than during the year-end processing period.
Please note that all employees need to indicate “yes” or “no” in their WhitNet profile. Failure to do so may result in delays in the generation of the W-2 forms.
If you have questions, please contact Senior Accountant Tara Lambert at x4435. We thank you in advance for your cooperation.
