W-2 Forms
Now Available Online
The University of Houston is pleased to
announce that 2008 W2 forms are available
online effective January 14, 2009. Faculty,
staff and student employees can choose to
receive their 2008 W-2 form, Wage and Tax
Statement, online through the PASS website
instead of by regular mail.
In order
to be able to access and print the W-2 form
electronically, employees must accept the
consent agreement. This consent agreement
does not roll over to the following years,
so employees must agree to receive the form
electronically each year. This election must
be made by January 21, 2009.
Employees who do not agree to the Electronic
Consent will receive their paper W-2 form
via U.S. Postal Service. These forms will be
mailed out by January 31 as required by the
Internal Revenue Service.
If the
information on the 2008 W-2 form is not
correct, please contact Renee Chang in the
Payroll Office at 713.743.8773.
