Employees can consent now to receive electronic W-2
U-M employees can consent now to receive an electronic PDF copy of their 2010 Form W-2 instead of an identical mailed copy.
Go to wolverineaccess.umich.edu and click on Employee Business (or Employee Self-Service) and then click View Paycheck. Follow the prompt to provide consent before selecting a paycheck.
The 2010 W-2 will be available for viewing and printing in Wolverine Access on Jan. 7. A reminder e-mail will be sent at that time.
By choosing the electronic PDF copy, employees will:
• Avoid having sensitive W-2 information, such as their Social Security number, delivered via U.S. mail.
• Save significant postage costs.
• Help reduce the use of natural resources associated with large-scaling printing and mailing.
Last year, the university saved more than $15,000 in postage thanks to those who received an electronic copy.
Alternatively, hardcopy W-2 Forms will be mailed Jan. 31 to employees who choose to receive their form in the mail. To ensure prompt delivery by the U.S. Postal Service, a current home address must be correct and on file.
Current home addresses may be updated via the Web using Wolverine Access. Address updates also may be made using the "Address/Personal Data Form" form available at hr.umich.edu/hrris/forms/individuals.html. Please update addresses by Jan. 4.
