Completing the Salary Certification

The Salary Certification Request screen appears when you click the SSN of a member whose Work Item Type is either “Salary Cert - Service” or “Salary Cert - Disability.” Use this screen to certify an employee or disabled member’s subject salary and employer-paid pre-tax (EPPT) contributions for a calendar year.

Important: If you believe you have already submitted a Salary Certification Request for a particular employee, do not fill out the form again for that employee except to add comments in the Comments text box and certify the form so PERS can investigate further.

1

Access the Work List screen following the instructions under "Accessing the Work List."

2

Click on an SSN (highlighted by the box) associated with "Salary Cert - Service" or "Salary Cert - Disability" to view the Salary Certification Request screen for that member.

3

In the Subject Salary column (shown shaded), type in the employee’s subject salary for each month the employee received subject salary. Do not type in the dollar sign ($). For Tier One members only, include any lump-sum vacation payments paid.

Note: To save an incomplete form so you can return to work on it at a later date, select the Save work in progress radio button , and then click the Save button.

4

In the EPPT column (shown shaded), type in the EPPT contribution for each month subject salary was paid. Do not type in the dollar ($) sign.

5

Click the Calculate button; EDX populates the Total and Subject Salary + EPPT text boxes (shown shaded).

6

Add any comments you feel are necessary regarding the individual’s salary certification.

7

Click the I certify the above to be correct to the best of my knowledge radio button (indicated by the arrow).

8

Click the Save button, or click the Cancel button to exit without saving.

If you clicked the Save button, a confirmation box appears to tell you the form has been submitted to PERS for review. The item is also removed from the Work List.
