[DAS_Centralized_PERS_Services_Team] PERS Retro Corrections, Overpayments & Updated Resources

[TOBIASSON Shauna M * DAS]

Greetings HR and Payroll Partners,

The CPERS team has been working to update our online resources to ensure they remain accurate, accessible and aligned with current processes.

Most recently, we've updated materials related to retroactive payroll corrections for both current and prior years. The updated document, "Retro Corrections & PERS Reporting,"<https://www.oregon.gov/das/Financial/Payroll/Documents/Retro%20Corrections%20%26%20PERS%20Reporting.pdf> is now available in the Resources section of the CPERS website.

Additionally, we'd like to provide clarification regarding the treatment of wage overpayments for PERS reporting purposes, particularly in light of recent discussions around recoupment and overpayment forgiveness:

Overpayment of Wages:

  *   If the overpayment is being recouped:
The overpaid amount must be removed from the PERS account. Agencies should follow the standard retroactive correction process.
  *   If the overpayment is not being recouped:
The wages remain posted to the PERS account as PERS-subject salary. No further action or notification to CPERS is required.

If you have any questions about this guidance or the updated resources, please don't hesitate to contact your assigned CPERS analyst.

Thank you for your continued partnership.

Best regards,
Shauna Tobiasson
Senior CPERS Analyst, Lead worker
