Form Guidelines for Payroll Clerks

Member Enrollment Form  
This form must be completed for: 
            Every new employee
            Every rehired employee
            Any name change
            Any transfers to your department
            Any change in status (example:  change from a permanent to on-call position)  
This form gives the Plan pertinent information on the member including the designated beneficiary.  The death benefit for an active member's named beneficiary will be a lifetime monthly annuity if the member should die while an active employee.  There are specific rules on who can be a beneficiary.  A beneficiary can be named as follows:

  • If you are married, the beneficiary must be your spouse. 

  • If you do not have a spouse but have children under age 21, they will automatically receive the benefit until they reach age 21. 

  • If you are unmarried and do not have children under age 21, you can name anyone as your beneficiary. 

  • Only one beneficiary can be named. 

  • The beneficiary cannot be your estate/trust.

  • You cannot name a contingency beneficiary.  

Leave Without Pay Form  
This form should be completed for any employee who is on temporary leave without pay.
 

Employee Separation Form  
This form must be completed for every person who is in a permanent or temporary position and eligible for fringe benefits who has terminated employment for whatever reason other than a transfer to another City agency.  DO NOT complete this form if an employee is in an ON-CALL position.  

Change of Beneficiary Form  
If an active member wants to change their beneficiary, this form should be used.  It is important that beneficiary information is kept current. Any life change such as marriage, divorce or death of a spouse might impact who the member wants as their designated beneficiary.  The form must be notarized.
