Click on the link below to upload your Retirement Election Forms and Employee Service Information Form.
Benefits OneDrive Link – Uploading the documents allows you to meet the deadline of submitting the forms by the end of day that you start work. (Date of Hire) If you have any issues with the upload link please feel free to email your forms to me directly, but please leave SSN fields blank for emailed copies.
- You will notice that the One Drive belongs to Stacy Baker – she is one of our benefits specialists who collects these forms for us
- You also need to mail the above listed forms within the next week so we have them with original signatures to send to the State. You may mail or drop off the originally signed copies to HR at 9 Walters Ave., Storrs, CT 06269.
Do I need to sign the forms?
Yes, the forms do need to be signed by your date of hire. If initially signed electronically, please ensure the forms returned to the Office Human Resources have an original (wet ink) signature.
What do I do about the Employment Information I do not have?
Please leave any employment information that you do not know blank. We will add the Employee ID, CORE-CT Job Code, Record Number, Bargaining Unit, etc. once the original forms are returned to HR.
What is my Employee ID?
This is a 6-digit payroll number employees are recognized by in CORE-CT (State Payroll/Benefits system). You will be able to locate your Employee ID on your paystubs, which you will have access to in the system. It is not your NET ID or the ID number on your Husky One Card. You may leave this blank if you do not yet know your Employee ID and HR will fill it in for you.
What is the Retirement Credit Purchase Request Form (CO-800)?
This form is required for those enrolling in the SERS Tier IV plan or SERS Hybrid plan. If you do not have any applicable service time you wish to request as purchasable toward your retirement, please write N/A in the purchase section and sign/date the form. The Signature line is small and right below the purchase section. If you elect to enroll in the Alternate Retirement Program (ARP) you may discard this form as it is not applicable to ARP members.
Do I need to fill it out?
It is required to fill out all forms, including those transferring from another state agency.
