 Subject: MASSMAIL - Update to W-2 Process and New Help Sessions

The process for electronic access to Form W-2 is a quick, convenient, and 
secure way to access your W-2 online. You can retrieve the form anywhere 
you can access the internet, it will be available two weeks before the 
mailed forms, and it cannot get lost in the mail or sent to an old 
address.

Once you consent to have electronic access, you will not have to consent 
again each year. If you wish to have early access to your W-2, you have 
until January 18, 2008, to complete the consent process and receive your 
form W-2 electronically. If you previously consented, you will receive a 
separate notice from University Payroll with instructions on how to 
retrieve your form. 

If you need assistance with the consent process, register to attend a 
help session this month. Refer to the following information for upcoming 
sessions, and instructions for consent, retrieval and access.  If you do 
not provide consent by January 18, you will receive a printed W-2 to be 
mailed on January 31, 2008. NOTE: Electronic access is not available for 
foreign national employees receiving Form 1042-S.

If you receive your Form W-2 by mail, or if you are a nonresident foreign 
national employee receiving Form 1042-S, your form will be mailed to the 
mailing address listed on your Personal Information tab in NESSIE as of 
December 31, 2007. If you did not have an active mailing address at that 
time, the form will be sent to your listed home/permanent address.
