Subject
Change to Schedule for Submitting Returned Paychecks
Date Issued
November 6, 2008
Purpose
To notify agencies of a change to the processing schedule for AC 230s (Report of Check Returned for Refund or Exchange).
Affected Employees
Payroll Bulletin No. 791 provides a schedule for submitting AC 230s. Due to an Institution paycheck date of December 31, 2008, OSC has amended the AC 230 due date for this specific check date.
Agencies must adhere to this schedule for accurate W-2 processing and to alleviate the need for W-2 Corrections and the issuance of credit letters as described in Payroll Bulletin No. 837.

|---|---|
| 10/1/08 to 10/31/08 | 11/14/08 |
| 11/1/08 to 11/30/08 | 12/5/08 |
| Institution: 12/4/08 and 12/18/08 | 12/26/08 |
| Administration: 12/10/08 and 12/24/08 | 1/2/09 |
| Institution: 12/31/08 | 1/6/09 |
Processing Rules for Returning Checks

- The employee is still actively employed by any State agency.
- The employee is due any regular and/or lump sum payments that are equal to or exceed the amount to be returned.
