Youshould have a new item on your EWP To-Do list. It’s time to verify your employer’s service quarters and pay periods for 2022. You’ll complete this for all plans including KPERS, KP&F and Working After Retirement.
What are service quarters?
Service quarters represent the relationship between your pay periods and when employees earn service credits. It’s the actual time worked for your employer’s pay dates each January through December. An employer can have one or more pay cycles.
Accuracy is crucial
Member service credit and pay period reporting rely entirely on pay-cycle information. It must be correct. Pay cycles in KPERS’ system must match those in your payroll system or you will have problems with reporting..
Important!
You must verify & submit service quarter info, even if you don’t make any changes. Submit to KPERS byNovember 19, 2021.
Checklist
KPERS has estimated your 2022 pay info based on your 2021 dates. Login to the EWP and verify these
dates.
After successfully submitting verification to KPERS, you’ll see this.
If you need to add an off-cycle for 2021, email us at kpersFS@kpers.org with the off-cycle pay date and the reason for it. You will be able to add an off-cycle on your own for 2022 after January 1.
